Ars Technica did a good article on this very thing. While the cooling is nice in some aspects, down there it's a bit too much, as components become brittle and easily damaged at temperatures that low. Static electricity is a larger concern with air that dry. (moisture is frozen out, and Antarctica is literally a desert.) Not the place to simply set your PC outside and go for the overclocking record.

That as well. You don't think of it that way, but the place is arid.
