January 23, 201312 yr It's very easy. Just says that's Liquid Nitrogen, isn't gas, so isn't "really" dangerous. The 1st time that I used LN2 I did it in my room, not in the garage. but wouldn't you gas yourself with the fumes?
January 24, 201312 yr Anyone from the Cincinnati, OH area know where to get LN2 for cheaper than $5 per liter. Only place i can find is Airgas for $5 per liter.....
January 24, 201312 yr but wouldn't you gas yourself with the fumes? I always bench in my room, just open your window.
January 24, 201312 yr but wouldn't you gas yourself with the fumes? bench in my house all the time, no death over here lol
January 24, 201312 yr but wouldn't you gas yourself with the fumes? only if you use a lot ln2 in a small room without ventilation between Christmas and New Year's we used 500L LN2 at the end there was so little oxygen that people could not smoke but it was no problem to breathe
January 24, 201312 yr Anyone from the Cincinnati, OH area know where to get LN2 for cheaper than $5 per liter. Only place i can find is Airgas for $5 per liter..... I'm in Louisville and Airgas gives it to me for $1/L. Tell them that you use it for a hobby and you won't buy often but if they won't sell it to you for cheaper, you won't buy it from them at all.

Tell them that you use it for a hobby and you won't buy often but if they won't sell it to you for cheaper, you won't buy it from them at all. Basically what I did. Played up the geek part of things, and that it was for non-commercial use.

January 28, 201312 yr Lol that's kinda what I was thinking. By the time I get around the cold bug on ivy and get to full pot I am typically 6 liters in already on the f1ee.
February 7, 201312 yr More like coldbug/speed testing on a dud chip hehe but seriously, I did this with less than 5L ln2 http://hwbot.org/submission/2279492_calathea_superpi___32m_core_i7_3770k_5min_11sec_297ms Just give the pot a blast with your heat gun / torch at -70 to get some ice and you can pull down an F1EE to -190 in ~ 5 min.
February 7, 201312 yr You need to learn efficiency on LN2 benching with the prices of our country Some people have made bad jokes about my comments of LN2 usage, but think about the prices: Best offer to fill my 34L dewar is 133€ If you use 2 of those in 1 month, you will need to pay ~3200€ / year. Pick 4 of those in a month and pay ~6400€. With list price 4 pickups in month would cost 13 000€/year. So keep joking about my 20liter LN2 results and welcome to Finland
