refrigerator case

[DrumminBoy]

Would it be possible to turn a working mini refrigerator into a supercooled case? Im thinking the moisture would ruin the components but its just a thought. have you seen any case/refigerator mods like this, or is it even possible?

Forgot the company, but it's pretty much been done to some extent. Not an actual refrigerator turned computer, but a computer case fitted with a refrigeration device.

The Asetek Vapochill works on the same principle.

ive seen an actual mini fridge turned computer.. using alcohol or some crap.. i dont have a link anymore though

you'd probably be better off using the refrigerator to cool in a water cooled setup or as a source of cold air to duct to the processor area.... doing much more than that makes for moisture/condensation concerns. If you wanted to do it just for the ability to say you did, you very well could for a little while, but long term causes some concern.

I've always wondered.. you could probably.. spread over the whole motherboard.. a thin layer of silicon sealent.. then over all of your other add in cards.. maybe that would work to keep the condensation off.. who knows just an idea tho..

That would work, but how would you upgrade?
