    Paul Watkinson from BenchTec UK takes us through the kit he's going to use in this world record attempt at overclocking an Intel i7 CPU with liquid nitrogen.
    Watch the show.

    Be lovely if this video went in to quite alot of detail, and ran for something like 20-30mins or longer, so that it can really excite people. Rather than some videos you see on youtube, where you just see someone with their head buried in a bioscreen, with a few moody camera shots of LN2 being poured into a pot.

    Showing the build, condensation proofing and stuff, would be really ace.

    Yep, even if its got what you think may be boring bits, to a true computer lover they wll soak in every minute.

    Pictures only go so far, having someone talk you thru exactly what their doing is always better.

    Re: HEXUS.tv Exclusive : Benchtec UK World Record attempt - the hardware

    Have to agree with matty & SimOn a ten minute snipit doesn't seem long enough i only managed half a bacun butty and it was over. I like the idea of a 20-30min vt of the build even throw in some of the cockups/outakes if any? it never gets boring watching a pro say oops! BTW excellent show..
