Other than the cold issues, do you always use big blocks of dry ice.
It's far better to smash it up to what looks like snow.

What pot are you using ?
As ln2 would be soo much easier to control temps.

Looks like your board is the problem here. You should be able to hit -100C without any problems. At least I haven't had any ever below this temp. Make sure your board is insulated properly and try a different cheap mobo.

Yeah for DICE always big blocks coz it comes in a full 5kg block which I have to break down to smaller chunks, its pretty hard/time consuming to fully smash them up like snow.

Pot is custom, fully made of copper, design copied from....dont remember,

hmmm, I guessed so to, LN2 is so costly here that have to think 10 times if you are not sure that the run would give you some points.....cool2
