You don't need refridgerator to cool the computer (unless you're using Skylake-X).

No need, I use Ryzen. Always cool.

You can always attach a fucking radiator sized heat sink to your computer and remove the fans
>>
>>62279260
The AC motor (and a few month later electric fans) was invented in the 80s. The electric fridge was invented in the 10s. Only thirty years difference.

Refrigeration technology is more expensive. You'd need about a 120 watt freezer for a 200 watt computer. The freezer would always have to beat the computer or it cook inside. That's around 100 dollars if it was mass produced for computers.

Or you know just a 10 dollar 1 watt fan that already does it's job

They do, have you never heard of water-cooling?

It is the exact same principle. Also note that refrigerators get very hot on their back and the heat doesn't magically disappear.

>why don't computers use refrigeration technology for cooling?
Because you only use refrigeration if you need to lower your temperature below ambient. Computers don't need that cooling and would actually be damaged due to condensation.

You can cool a computer using just air, it saves on parts and running costs.
>>
>>62279260
You can buy coolers that work the same way.
But there is no need.
>>
>>62279552
>It is the exact same principle.
No it's nothing at all the same.

Refrigeration works because you are expanding a high pressure liquid into a low pressure gas that absorbs energy when it changes state from liquid to gas. Then compressing the hot gas and dumping the heat from where you evaporated the HP liquid and the heat added by compression, which condenses the HP gas back into a liquid.

Water cooling just uses water as a medium of heat transfer without any state changes or compressors.
>>
Exists, called phase-change cooling. Condensation is the big issue. And size. And weight. And cost. And they're pointless.
>>
>condensation
direct the condensation in to a cup of water. Infinite water = gaming fuel
>size and weight
who cares, you're not gonna move your desktop anywhere anyway
>cost
capitalism would fix that
>heat
direct the excess heat to a secondary refrigerator

Man powered fans go back millennia, steam to the 1830's, and the first electric fans were DC not AC. The AC motor was not invented in the 1880's but instead the 1830's, you're thinking of the induction motor.
>>
a fridge/freezer cooling system's strength is lower-than-ambient temperatures, something which is both not particularly beneficial to computers, and possibly a negative, as lower-than-ambient temperature leads to condensation
they're also not as powerful as you'd think, a freezer might stay well under 0C all the time, but remember that you're talking about a thermally insulated box containing items which generate no heat at all, it's not hard to maintain temperature in this environment
put a heat generating device in a freezer and you'll find the freezer will struggle to keep the temperature down

Has it ever ocurred to you that the food you put in your fridge does not produce heat?

Try putting a 300 or just 100 Watt heater inside your refrigerator, leave it there for a few hours and then go back and see what happened to your food.

I didn't want to link to Linus, but he actually explains it:

I'd personally like to see the tech revisited, there are ways to mitigate the downsides.

Refrigerators are actually really inefficient, which is why they bug you if you leave the door open for more than 10 seconds.

You can't use a standard refrigerator to cool a computer because it doesn't dump heat out faster than the computer is generating it.

You don't use phase change cooling for a silent PC.

Actually computer refrigirators do exist

Linus shown something once.
It was a massive ficking machine that made ice grom on the mobo and shit.

I believe the vide was about "does lower temperature make pc faster?" You can try searching for it.

Don't think that's true, my dad had an electric fan in the 70s and I'm sure we had fridges back in the 90s

refrigeration cycles dont have to be phase-transition cycles , ones without phase transition would work too.

also fans and air act as a heat pump . heat pumps are orders of magnitude more efficient then any refrigeration cycles . and therefor fans produce less heat for the same cooling then refrigerators .while also requiring less energy to work .
