Bernhard Vetsch of ThermodynamX is building a refrigeration system into a PC. With freezer cooling, he wants to constantly cool the Threadripper 3970X processor beast to 20 degrees Celsius. Today we're going to overclock the system together.

The PC with refrigeration circuit is working. After many hours of planning and building, Bernhard finally managed to get the system up and running last time. Today, I also get to lend a hand. Check out the video above to see how Bernhard Vetsch and I overclock the Threadripper 3970X by 800 MHz to 4.5 GHz. For English subtitles, click the gear icon, «Subtitles/CC» and «Auto-translate».
