How can people think this will work? It's basic physics. I'm an engineer, trust me. If that computer is left on any length of time, it'll fry.

Yes it will be quiet, but it'll fry.

The oil will retain the heat. There is no way for the heat to dissapate. It's like having a car without a radiator. It's stupid.

There is no oil flow to help with cooling either, the oil sits there motionless. It needs passing over a cold surface so heat exchange can take place, removing the heat from the oil.

Sorry, but im laughing at those of you who actually think this works.
Vaugly reminds me of a fartcan on a pink car I've seen somewhere recently. Some people!

Just one minor detail to mention, a normal CPU will run happy at 104*F /40*C. If doing this at home be sure to read the last line and use the recommended liquid of choice, "motor oil". It will hardly have any heat strains on it what-so-ever, and will last for hours without needing a scheduled change out, or a reminder note from the local pit-stop. [img]smile.gif[/img]
