  Hmm, the oil cooling trick is a good idea, and nothing new. High voltage transformers use oil baths as an insulator and cooling method.

  Fascinating. Just one problem, what do you do when it's time for an upgrade? Seems like a bit of a hassle to drain the oil, install component, then refill. Unless you plan using the surgeon approach and installing components with the oil still inside..

  I wonder about longevity of some components in an oil base though from a chemical point of view...
  
  and the upgrade...uhg, you know how hard it is to get an oil film off of contacts? Try the sockets and slots!
  
  I dunno...

  Just imagine a cable getting loose .. ewwwwwwww.
  
  After so many hours you need an oil change like a boat
  
  I guess you could just reuse the oil like most fast food joints

  Nothing new, actually one of the teachers in Vocational institute had done that. (overclocking was also his other hobby)
  
  He sawed of motherboards backplate (and part with expansion card slots) from old case and sinked that with components to oil.

  But in every case cleaning must be really pain in the neck.
