Raktron Turbo PC: A 'turbocharged' PC with an actual turbocharger

For several years, people have used the cliche "Turbocharge your PC" when referring to upgrading it. Raktron Inc., which has both PC and car enthusiasts, had enough of this nonsense and decided to literally turbocharge their PC. They took a turbocharger out of a 1990 Mitsubishi Eclipse, and hooked what would be the intake manifold to the front of the case, and set the turbocharger fan to run at 3500rpm. Raktron then proceeded to put headlights on the case, gave it an incredible paint job, and licensed it through Ohio (could just be a novelty plate, though).

È um Turbocharger de um Mitsubishi eclipse(compressor a AR) , Penso que está a manda ar para dentro da caixa com a FAN regulada a 3500Rpm



What is a turbo? It's an air compressor that pressurizes the air in the intake manifold of a combustion engine. Instead of increasing the displacement (volume) of the combustion chamber, the turbo makes more power by stuffing more air into the same space. The turbo is powered by hot exhaust from the exhaust manifold, which flows over the blades of the turbine wheel. This wheel spins the shaft which also turns the compressor wheel in the intake path.

This computer case mod uses it in a different way. Cool air is forced into the front of the computer's case, helping to reduce temperatures. Cooling is essential to maximizing overclocking performance, and to increasing the lifespan of the components inside. Since there is no exhaust to spin the turbine wheel in this case, an electric motor is used to drive it with a coupling shaft.

fonix a minha alma ta parva, no entanto na sei se o caudal de ar seja o suficiente pra mexer o turbo
