>Liquid nitrogen goes in top.

Do overclockers not understand the problems with this? The nitrogen gas almost immediately acts as insulation between the liquid and the processor.
Why doesn't anyone create a piping system similar to water cooling that actually allows proper LN flow?

typically they don't run those systems long enough for it to matter
people who want really cold chips constantly run a compressed gas coolant cycle, like a refridgerator
>>59844146
its still cold you know, and it bubbles off immediatly

That's the point. There's this thing called the coldclock bug. Too cold the chip stops working.
Ryzen doesn't have this problem.
So the current world record for that chip type (currently held by ryzen) At 5.2Ghz may get broken even more with a better system of Ln2 cooling.

i have a ghetto liquid cooling system for my pentium 4 that i use to reheat coffee

You're gonna have a couple fun moments when the whole thing blows up

Then why fucking use liquid Nitrogen in the first place. If you can't get to liquid N2 temperatures, what's the point? There are solutions with far better cooling rates.
You could do a setup like for liquid cooling and use acetone or isopropyl alcohol and dry ice if -78 °C is fine. And otherwise simply cooled water is great at transferring heat, too.
