Submerged PC
 

While most of the mainstream computer users wont go beyond a normal Heatsink, there are a few who will venture into the realm of watercooling, and beyond that theres the chosen few who are really extreme.

This PC is fully immersed in fluid, but its not water, a non-electrically conductive fluid must be used. This is the ultimate in complete PC cooling.

Take your favorite translator along as this one is not in english, but pictures are universal.


Fluid Submersion

So, how is that thing not shorting out?

it's a non-conductive liquid (can't short out)

Even Since a hard drive is air-sealed, it won't get any liquid inside it.

Technically I don't think hard drives are completely sealed and airtight. There is a filter in place that allows the drive to breath slightly. It may be that this user has sealed off that hole though.

I think they are completly sealed. There is an inert gas (argon mostly I think) inside the main compartment. Why do you think people who mod their hard drive only have it last only a few months? Cause the let the gas out, and Oxygen in, which somehow can disrupt the space between the head and the plate. (something like that anyways)

So what liquid do they have it submerged in?

oil

Ahhhh. I wish I could read the write up on it, but I don't speak that language.

i thought i posted a translation


run it thru babel fish

oxygen/water in air and some metals =rust=not conducive to microscopic magnetic read/writing. Of course, the rusting isn't able to be seen, but it's there (i'm pretty sure).
