Any lessons learned to add to this? I am in the process of turning my HTC into a mineral oil pc due to quietness and ability to have the cooling at a remote point (outside of enclosed cabinet). I have to build a top box to hold my DVD drive, and a few harddrives and then I can get to work.AXMRDRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10858600697914707060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576572074746122933.post-60872003617252732962014-10-30T08:05:37.218-07:002014-10-30T08:05:37.218-07:00Look at the power supply, but I can't believe ...Look at the power supply, but I can't believe it would be much higher than the system in this article.<br />I'd be interested to how the display holds up.

Considering taking an old laptop I have laying around and "dipping" the hardware (minus the HDD) into a mineral oil filled aquarium to use as a media server/netflix streaming device. It is by no means a high end/gaming rig and seems to have minimal fans/cooling in its stock case. <br /><br />My question - do you think the low heat from Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576572074746122933.post-73157893046369899742014-02-21T08:11:19.020-08:002014-02-21T08:11:19.020-08:00PVC parts - According to:

So I'd target keeping your system below 60C to prevent PVC rot. I suspect that's what happened to my USB connectors.malkarishttp://malkaris.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576572074746122933.post-49041193675943485622014-02-21T08:08:54.074-08:002014-02-21T08:08:54.074-08:00I think this might work for making a more interest...I think this might work for making a more interesting fluid<br />http://www.dyes.com/greases-lubricants-oil-based-dyes<br />malkarishttp://malkaris.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576572074746122933.post-19414998070628660102014-02-21T08:01:06.801-08:002014-02-21T08:01:06.801-08:00https://www.keyshot.com/red-harbinger-i-render-the...https://www.keyshot.com/red-harbinger-i-render-therefore-i-am/2013/<br />so I'm thinking a table like this, would give you a REALLY awesome oil-cooled setup.

It wouldn't let me respond/interact. As I expect questions and comments, that defeats the point of the blog.<br />Therefore, I've downgraded the blog back to normal comments.
