What Is Computer Liquid Cooling

So what is liquid cooling then? Well firstly, everybody knows that CPUs are getting faster and faster every single day. What comes with these faster speeds are an increasing number of transistors inside of CPUs, and also more power is being used. What does this all mean? Well, a lot more heat is being produced!

These days you won’t find a processor on the market without its own heatsink to lower the generated heat caused by the CPU. But as CPUs continue to rise in speed over time, so do the speed of fans to combat the problem. And the faster the fans, the louder they become. So that’s why we turn to other cooling solutions, and that is where computer liquid cooling comes into play.

Liquid Cooling

Just like a radiator in your car, PC liquid cooling systems work similarly to reduce the heat caused by CPUs. The system works by circulating a liquid through the CPU’s heatsink. The liquid works to absorb the heat from the hot CPU, and then the liquid moves towards a radiator located at the rear of your computer’s case. The radiator then transfers the heat out the back of the computer case and into the air. The liquid then repeats this process over again by traveling back through the CPU.

It may sound complicated, but it’s a very simple process in reality.

Advantages And Disadvantages of Liquid Cooling
Liquid cooling systems for your PC are a very efficient way to draw heat away from your CPU, and are a big advantage to overclockers. With liquid cooling, the CPUs temperature is less and therefore this allows for higher clock speeds. For example, some extreme overclockers have been able to almost double their processor speed with the use of liquid cooling systems.

Another advantage of computer liquid cooling is that it reduces the noise of your PC. As opposed to a lot of heatsink and fans, a liquid cooling system is going to run a lot quieter. The system generally contains two fans, one is the fan to move the liquid throughout the PC and the other is the fan at the back of the PC case. Both of these fans are fairly quiet because they don’t need to run very fast, as compared to the fast-spinning (and therefore noisy) fans on a CPU heatsink.

The main disadvantage to liquid cooling at the moment is space. All the parts of the system take up a fair bit of space, and so you will need to have a large case to fit the cooling system. Another downside would have to be the difficulty of installing such a system. You wouldn’t want to be installing it yourself if you’re not 100% sure of what you’re doing, as you may damage your other components if there are leakages.

Automation - Update Naukri Profile Using Selenium

Recently one of my friend came to me with a problem. He is looking out for new job but he feels quite boring to update  his profile on daily basis. As some people says updating profile in the morning gives you more calls as it keeps the newly updated profile on top (Although i don’t know whether naukri works this way or not 😀 ). As i was more interested to solve his problem.  After listening his problem i came to solution that instead of updating it manually lets make this job automatic. And it is quite interesting how we can automate our daily boring task with automation. Another day i came with the solution . And the solution was to make it automatic using selenium (Those who are not aware about selenium do check this link) In short, Selenium is a Testing automation Framework. And it is for automating web applications for testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that. Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should) also be automated as well....

3 facts about Microsoft Windows

1. Nobody can create a folder named “Con”. Try to create anywhere on your hard disk a folder called “Con” (without the quotes). Go to a location on your hard disk, right click, choose “New” and then select “Folder” from the menu that appears. Name the folder “Con” (without quotes) and hit Enter. You’ll see that the folder won’t be named “Con“. It will be “New folder” 2. A text file made with Notepad, with the following content : “Bush hid the facts” (without quotes) won’t display the actual text. Go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Notepad . Write in Notepad the following text : “Bush hid the facts” (without quotes) then Save the file and exit Notepad. Now go to the text file you created and open it. You’ll see that the text you just wrote and save won’t show. 3. Write in Word this : “=rand(200,99)” (without the quotes) and witness the magic. Open Microsoft Word and on the first line write : “=rand(200,99)” (without the quotes) and hit Enter
