That one's pretty tame. There was one a couple of years ago done by a guy
who worked at Wal-Mart. He dunked his PC in the oil, and used a fridge
compressor to cool it. The idea was super-cooling to get it overclocked.
The oil was pumped over the cooling elements, and then dripped into the oil
pool. He tried it and it worked well. He went to work, and on his return
found his PC was broken. The cooling element had covered itself in ice. A
block of ice fell off into the motherboard bath. It melted. The PC
shorted
out. Whoops! The thing is, once you've cooled the PC with the oil, you
still have to cool the oil.
Cheers,
Andy
