Intel Dothan Overclocking, going for 100% OC on Dry Ice

Overclocking/Overclocking Tests by Jort @ 2005-06-29

Today we go for a 100% overclock with a 1.6Ghz Pentium M Dothan CPU, using Dry Ice to cool the CPU this might be possible. To make things more interesting we also push an ATI X800 to its limit running it at -52?C.

Dry Ice Preparation

I improved my original design by adding a collection of copper nails in the center the base plate, this allows for a larger contact area with the dry ice and improves heat transfer, which in turns gives lower temperatures!

The ring you see on the tube below is to make the hold down fit at a height which allows for higher pressure on the CPU
