Default The oil cooling sys on front page translation

Certain projects can appear insane, but one always crosses illuminated who through constructions want to change and bring to the operation of an object a esthetism nonrequired to the beginning.
That is not true a tuning PC but rather based on "numerical art".
And it that is accordingly provided with a fish aquarium and an old computer and about 25 liters of oil which I decided to make cohabit all this world.
Oil not leading the current it could not y have contact between the various chips or electronic components, therefore the short circuit was not possible.
The whole functioned during one week without any problem until the awaited moment or the hard disk which because of a light escape on a side returned the heart but good it nevertheless had easily 7ans...
But that is possible and functions...
A new disc not immersed in oil has functioned now for 2 weeks. Moreover it should be noted that a ventilator of food connected in oil still functions and TURNS!! The whole without problem!!!
If by chance you have the idea to remake the same thing, veiled some indications:

You can (of course) entirely dismount your PC supply to insert it in oil with the remainder.
For oil I advise vegetable oil or groundnut less they smell than the others with time...
It should be also known that with time oil in contact with the air mixes and that can create a court-circuit!!
If you immerse also your hard disk, siliconer him before the sides to avoid the escapes. If not it will function only a few times.
I will want to see well this same system without the hard disk in oil (ouais it is deceived:-p) but with a system of watercooling on the processor, that should be serious... OPINION WITH JUSTIFIES!!!
