Computer Cooling

Processors are hot! Literally, they can get very very hot. Computer cooling is needed as you can boil water on a running processor. This amount of heat however is not a good thing. So, we use different methods of CPU cooling to keep it running at lower temperatures. From basic heat sink cooling to CPU water cooling, to extreme liquid nitrogen cooling, it has all been tried. Lets take a look at the 3 main methods.

Check out the links below to learn more about each method.

1. Heat Sink Cooling - CPU cooling with heatsinks only.

2. Water Cooling - CPU cooling using water.

3. Extreme Cooling - CPU cooling using extreme methods.
