I do know everything, just not all at once. It's a virtual memory problem.
Sounds about right.
Oil has nil conductive properties for electricty so can't short out.

how about mineral oil, here is a picture http://www.yourcomputerminute.com/20...f-mineral-oil/
You could even use a mini freezer or a ice cream freezer filled with oil for even better overclocking, although most freezers engines only work upright. Like that you could have the whole PC in a freezer with the mainboard in the oil hard drives and things on a shelf higher up. you would probably look for a high rated freezer that can go to -25 or something) right that's it I am shopping for freezers.

The PSU is in there. I honestly don't believe that... it's ridiculous.Originally Posted by site
There is a fluid used for cooling large power transformers that can be used for complete submersive cooling.

PSUs work in oil. HDDs won't so they'd have to be outside it. Mineral oil is a much better choice than vegetable as it's less likely to go rancid.
Freezer won't work, you'll burn out the compressor.
Upgrades must be a bit messy.

How about changing CDs then
The drives are out of the oilOriginally Posted by viet_cong_zombi
A very interesting idea it has to be said.
I don't think a freezer would be much use, they are designed to keep things at a constant temperature and tend to struggle when they have to fight against heat being put into the system rather than just cooling over the ambient air tempOriginally Posted by viet cong zombi
phase change is loosely based on the basis of a fridge/freezer compressor.... I think
Otherwise use a peltier thing, like in mini fridges
