The air is too moist in there.
Eventually, the moisture would collect and crash your system.
Here at work we test chips by blowing freezing dry air on them.
They work but sometimes the cold attracts moisture on the bottom of the board. This mold grows on them and shorts stuff out.
The board can usually be cleaned and work again except when the moisture gets under one of the chips with a Ball grid array. Can't clean under there without sending it out and having the chip removed and the board cleaned, the chip reballed and re installed.
So, in a word, Ruined

jointly you're though assessing the project, purchase a USB flashdisk or exterior storage gadget to backup your archives. Burning them on DVD is often an selection. Your buddy is suitable. likely the most accessible hardware to fail is the HDD. in case your files are large (in gigaBytes), purchase an HDD ASAP very reminiscent of the only interior your computing gadget (SATA or IDE) and move your archives already to the clean rigidity by a USB cable adapter that would make the clean ability as an outdoors HDD. once you commit to interchange the historic HDD, merely plug in the hot one and reinstall your OS (abode windows) without reformatting the flexibility. Your files will stay intact.

It would increase the speed capability of the processor. Heat is one of the culprits responsible for slowing a computer's speed. As long as the humidity is low enough it would do no or very little harm, how ever condensation could short the whole thing out.

I left a work laptop out in an unheated storage shed one night. The next morning I found that the display had cracked when it got supercold that evening.

You may find that the LCD liquid will freeze and the battery output will also drop. The grease on the Hard Disk motor may freeze.
But once everything thaws, it should be back to normal.

The water vapor that is contained in the air inside your laptop (in the spaces between the cover and its contents, in the CD-drive drawer, etc.) will freeze into ice crystals, and these will act as "dead shorts" between various conductive components, resulting in the rapid death of your computer.
The warranty does not cover "acts of dimness", LOL!

You would create condensation of water vapor with in the laptop, damaging it. Possibly beyond repair.
Bad idea.

As long as you don't leave it in there very long then nothing will happen. Computers actually run better when they are cool. Frozen computers, however, will not work and it will break your computer.
