Do computers in the Artic and Antartic regions overclocks without special equipments?

Any suggestions to where I should do my overclocking?

I would pick the Antarctic over the Arctic. Right around where those Emperor penguins hatch their eggs would probably work. D*mn cold down there. Plus you wouldn't have to live on an iceberg like you would at the North Pole.

As a compromise -you probably wouldn't get as good an OC- you could try Labrador. That's in Canada, so you might find a few people around, which could work out better. They've got a pretty good beer up there, in case you're worried. Molson's.

Keep in mind you will have to be outside. So take a good coat. See, if you're inside and it's like 70 degrees F, it really doesn't matter how cold it is outside.

Hope this helps.

Good luck finding an ISP in the Antartic or Arctic. Let us know how it went when you get back.

Go to the moon and set up a moon lab that drives over the surface of the moon as it rotates on it's axis so that you stay away from the sun all the time... it'll get pretty fuggin cold then =)

I've heard hell is mighty cold...

Maybe you can use some damned souls on stationary bicycles to power the thing while you are at it.

Dude, are you saying the Centrino wasn't sent to us by God and doesn't have mystical powers that other computer processors don't have?????????

That sounds high for water cooling that's circulated outside into freezing cold weather.
