        Yea, if you got enough money to get constant LN2, then you can get it.

              $20?

              Its like $2/Liter or something, usually. Not gallons, because the people that sell them are usually scientific, so they deal in metrics. :)

                How long will one liter last you?

                  Not very long before it evaporates. At room temp maybe an hour, but dumped onto a hot CPU it doesn't last long.

                    Lol, i was afraid you would say that, well there goes my chance at crazy OCing, anyways, how much does DIce cost? Also, i heard OCZ was making a real cheap phase change, is it out yet?

                      DICE is like half the cost, and MUCH more widely avaliable. And, ofcourse, it comes in cubic-something, not liters. Or was it Kg...I forget. =/

                      Yea, a liter of LN2 doesn't last too long, which is why I said $20 = 10 Liters. That should last you for the majority of the day. Remember that it's supposed to be for the highest possible overclocks -- Don't expect to be running SuperPi 32M or 24-hour Prime95 on LN2.

                      DICE lasts much longer than LN2, and I personally like it more than LN2. It's also much easier to store than LN2. Dice, you can just leave laying around (don't step on that area afterwards, though). LN2 has to be kept in containers, I forget their name.

                        And how does the cooling ability of DIce compare to the cooling capability of LN2?

                          LN2 is much better, but how cold do you need it to be?

                          I mean...whether its -150*C or -70*C, its not like you're going to be running into heat problems anytime soon.

                            How does phase change stack up, and how expensive is the cheapest phase nowadays?

                              No idea. I don't keep up with permanent sub-zero cooling. Too much of a hassle, IMO.

                                Costs way too much too, say, Flanker, what cooling do you have for your 3200+?
