My chiller experience was tossing the rad outside in 10 degree F weather lol.
Never got frost.. but my house is not insulated well.. Only hit 0C on the software probes.
Personally... I would freeze the CPU and get what you can out of the GPU. only cause of hwbot. GPU just don't scale like CPU under cold. Problem is no one cools the whole card... you can expect the rubber whatever to eventually cool it all but it aint like a full cover heatsink or something...
VRMS get hot still... (VRMs on my 4890 totally limit the clocking ability) I am not a GPU ln2 colling guru though.
(You take that mass versus responsive ness argument and apply it to rubber .. yes rubber cools the whole card but it aint really KEEPing it cool... )
