Full Immersion Cooling Comes To Desktop PCs
mr_sifter writes "After three years of research and around £100,000 of R&D costs, UK-based Armari has unveiled its XCP prototype. It's a full immersion liquid cooled PC which supports standard ATX components. Unlike conventional liquid cooled PCs, the components are all easy to swap in and out as they're swimming in liquid, rather than under waterblocks. It also looks amazing, pumping around 70KG of electrically inert cooling fluid (salvaged from an old Cray) around its military grade perspex shell."
They used flourinert.
Heh, looks like my recollection on the pricing is a bit off: 250ml for 555.35USD at one retailer and 3Gal for 2,450USD from another.

The summary said that the R&D costs were £100,000, not that it was the price of the PC.
I know, actually read the summary, must be new here, etc.
Sturgeon was an optimist.
since when do computers get twice as fast every 18 months? That hasn't been true for a couple years.

They don't, Mineral Oil is used in cooling large transformers though. And yes it is flammable and they do make a HUGE fireball when they blow up. Fortunately it takes some pretty extreme conditions to light it up like say a lightning bolt.
I may agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to face the consequences of saying it.
