As anyone knows that has a PC and lets it run all the time, you have a little monster on your hands. This little monster has a video card, power supply, CPU(s) and hard drives. All these things put off heat. It’s like a small furnace running all the time.

Anyone who has ever been to a data center, or has more than 1 computer in a small room knows, that room is always going to be hotter. In the winter time just sleep in that room with the door closed; you’ll be comfy/cozy.

I found this video and it’s just ‘kewl’, but not only is it kewl, but it would actually save you money- AND I think it would also save you your PC, because heat is your PC’s arch enemy. Heat is breaking down the PC from the time the poor thing gets it’s taste of power. Additionally, you wouldn’t have to worry about the fans getting clogged up with dust! There’s no dust when it’s submerged.

I love this concept as a production model. It’s never gonna happen, but it fixes some issues.

The idea of having a CPU cooled by a fluid is an idea that’s been around a while, but I don’t think many actually think about submerging the whole system in a fluid to keep the system cooled. The cooler a system can be kept the better it performs [there are limits].

Maybe one day you’ll go to the store and pickup a PC and it’s gonna slosh around while your walking and carrying it home. Sounds fun. I’d buy the little toy fish and treasure chest to go with it.

Does anyone have any doubts that if an opposing idea is presented to this man he doesn’t go everything but dead nuts crazy on them. I can see this man going just freakin nuts at a board meeting… I think Microsoft would do better if they had someone more open minded at the wheel.
