The article has to be 3 or 4 years old if not older. Some guy built his house around his computer. He dug a hole like one hundred feet into the ground into which he put liquid H tanks. Feed lines led up to his computer. The end result was that he was able to freeze the CPU and overclock the heck out of it.

Liquid hydrogen?

Why liquid hydrogen? That would be difficult and dangerous to use for cooling.

Sure it wasn't N2?

It probably was... You can get liquid He, but it's expensive.
 
What would it accomplish to bury the tanks in the ground? It's not like it's that cold down there. It'd make more sense to invest in good insulation around the tanks.
 
Don't you need a pretty expensive setup to store liquid hydrogen? He had to be using liquid nitrogen - fairly cheap and easy to store.
