I have finally reached the singularity.

After figuring out how to use oxygenated blood in my cpu cooling loop, I built the ultimate gaming computer using a gamers brain as the cpu.

After watching the youtube video where a guy hooked up his desktop water cooling system to an old-school hot water radiator and used it to heat a room, it's hard to come up with something to say about this.

I've seen crazier.

Well, the "room" was an enclosed closet, it was a rather high-end PC set to run benchmarking tests on continuous loop, and the amount of heat generated was comparable to the control setting, where the PC was sitting in the room with the normal water cooling system and running the benchmarking tests.

To be precise, the starting room temperature and the ending room temperature were identical between the tests to a few degrees,however, using the cast-iron radiator showed significant lag at the beginning, due to the increased amount of water and "heat sink material" that needed to be warmed to radiate into the room.

The bottom line was "It's possible, however, it's a bad idea, since the internal rust and scale buildup in the radiator cannot be fully flushed out, and that crud will mess up your pump over time."

Also, it was a YouTube video, when do they have to make sense to be posted?
