After posting the previous video on a computer cooling system with liquid nitrogen, some people who I know kept sending in the emails on the cooking oil coolant, also found on Tom’s Hardware. These people never run out of impractical mods to show the world.
Loading...Cool stuff? Maybe not, here is the link of a bunch of people that criticized the setup in the video.
What do you think? Share your thoughts, will it work? Or not work? If you will go through the whole story here, they first tried distilled water. Yes distilled water is not a conductor of electricity since it has no ions that make water a conductor of electricity. And most natural sources may always will have trace amounts of Sodium, Potassium, Calcium and Magnesium either as carbonates or chloride salts. Distilled water does not have this but even a very small amount will make water a conductor and it will short all connections on the PC. One thing not effectively done also was the use of cooking oil than motor oil that has a very low boiling point compared to cooking oil which is a simply measure of how much heat it can take.
I wonder what will be the next THG computer setup? A radiator cooled processor? What about dry ice, solid Carbon Dioxide? Or a setup where your small refrigerator is modified to have your CPU in there too. Then you have your programming days soda stored in there too!
