Beer used to cool CPU

While reading Beer Advocate today, I came across this article regarding a test that the guys at Tom’s Hardware performed to determine the best liquid coolants. The results are the best part. Molson Canadian came in second place!

Tom’s Hardware Video #1 – Standard Coolants

Tom’s Hardware Video #2 – Unconventional Coolants

InfoWorld also covered the story.

The guys are BA asked how a “real beer” would do.  My guess is that a beer with a higher alcohol content would provide better cooling because alcohol makes a pretty good coolant.  So to answer their question, a real beer would probably score higher than Molson.
