Hello everybody,
my question is: do you get an increase in speed/power/performance when you "freeze" computer components such as the CPU with LN2 or phase change cooling, getting to under -100º,-150º.
Because as long as I'm aware CPU´s are made out of semiconductors and as temp lowers the resistivity on these rises. (but i don´t really know the effect of resistivity in performance)
Or is it just a super cool way of making sure the components don´t overheat?
Preferably from a physics point of view
TIA
Fran
