Thread: Submerging a Computer in Mineral Oil

Talk about, pros/cons. Has someone tested with a fresher setup? I can just search videos of guys with former school P4's overclocking on this.

There was one computer website construct a PC similar to that, i7 rig utilizing mineral oil as a coolant in a fish tank. They bubbled air by to help remove the heat, had a stable overclock for years IIRC. It is a cool view but you had excellent be darned happy with your system early whacking the oil in otherwise it is going to acquire so messy assuming it all out.

You could do the similar with de-ionised water I suppose. I would not need to test it with anything more than an former P4 either though.

If I am going to go balls-out with cutting edge hardware i would much instead adjust a some peltiers. I guess purchasing a ton of oil is affordable, though.........so theres that...

I look it for the first time. It is amazing. But you actually should not alter the hardware often. Might be they should address the HTPC market. But I definitely would sth like that if I can.
