Comments on "mineral oil / baby oil cooled computer"
i want to see the ... i want to see the computer is booting whit the screen on?
well done mate well ... well done mate well done, gotta tell my buddy roach mann about this, hes aklway? looking for innovative ways to clean breath and cool his gear, what a great idea
For everyone ... For everyone wondering how this works,
Water is conductive and if the pc was in water it would bridge parts of the pc together and create a short circuit and there fore damaging the pc and causing major damages to not only your pc but also your houses power wiring.
However,? Mineral Oil only has a VERY small amount of iron in it and there fore is NON conductive and will not cause a shirt circuit unlike water :)
Hope I helped those who were wondering.
And why is that?? And why is that??
Woow? Woow?
Exactly. The ... Exactly. The dissolved mineral(s) has to form an ionic solution? in the water
i tried this and ... i tried this and my? fish didnt like it too well and i blew my fuse!.... where did i go wrong!
hahahahahahaha!!!? hahahahahahaha!!!?
thnx a lot!? I made ... thnx a lot!? I made a bid on a old aquarium already ;))
Its gonna? be cool, ... Its gonna? be cool, if you will down to oil your hard disks :)
oh yes it is? in ... oh yes it is? in the tank
its not in the? tank its not in the? tank
Oil does not ... Oil does not conduct eletricity.?
there is a kit on ... there is a kit on the internet that has a mounting thing for the motherboard and cards.?
this? is not a ... this? is not a computer this is omg :O
how? it is possible? how? it is possible?
the mobo is not ... the mobo is not mounted to the rear of the tank in any way
i cut a motherboard tray and rear panel from a cheap pc case
then bolted a sheet of plexi the same size as the tanks top to the rear panel so it sits on the top of the tank and holds the rear panel and mobo? tray in? the oil
then i just mounted the motherboard to the tray as normal
that's why it's now at a 90? degree angle as the rear panel is now pointing up
yeah there is a ... yeah there is a little dust in the tank ... but it's no big deal as it floats... it just accumulates around the surface where the oil touches the top of the tanks sides and leaves what i would describe as a light, hardly even noticable mark....and this is after 18 months
there is no smell left ... it's long gone? now....it was pretty intense but in no way unpleasant
I would love to see ... I would love to see an answer on this two questions aswell. Besides; How did you attach the? moetherbord on the back side of the aquarium?
Have you had any ... Have you had any dust accumulation in the tank?
Also, do you have any kind of scent permeating the? room constantly?
Bcoz? its oil, its ... Bcoz? its oil, its thicker n doesnt conduct like water
I always though ... I always though that O2 alone would do all the mess? with metals, thanks for explaining
Thank? you my ... Thank? you my friend, I never though that
