submerged PC

Nah, just pop it in.
It'll be cool no matter what.

I wonder how much it'll OC.

well with oil at first it works really well but then starts to go down hill head wise unless u use a radiator so far but it might heat up after like a few hours

Hah, guys, I'm just gonna do this to say I did it. It's not going to be a long term thing, it's going to be an afternoon thing, I'll keep it together for a week at most. But I'm not gonna do too much with an athlon

 

[foothead]

Itll be cool for sure. Are you gonna leave the heatsink on the CPU?

 

[esa193]

u have 2...u can leave fans on as well they circulate the oil
if u take the heat sink off it will boil off fast

 

[foothead]

Huh.

I guess it doesn't break the fans then?

 

[esa193]

i ment the cpu will like burn up
and nope youtube some videos they all left the fans and there fine

 

[GibsonSGKing]

Huh.

I guess it doesn't break the fans then?

nope. I've read about an aquarium PC that's had the fans going for a year and still runnin strong. That's in mineral oil though.

 

[foothead]

This is cool.
Is it a custom PC?
If so, see how much you can OC it before it blows up.

 

[Whyfly??]

Some people use mineral oil for food (Normal people) some use it for their cars (Creative thinkers) and then some people........

 

[vampist]

Is mineral oil not conductive, is that how this works?
