The computer would be too heavy for LAN parties and too messy to upgrade.

Did you put the power supplier aswell?

they left the hard drives on top. Thats cause they are mechanical and would not work in oil.

You're right, pure distilled/deionized water doesn't conduct electricity and it is a much better conductor of heat than oil. The problem is, is that pure water never stays pure and will start to disolve any metal it comes in contact with thereby making it conductive again. So a PC submerged in pure water wouldn't last long before it shorted out. It's the same reason why you'll never see pure water in nature.

If you checked their website, after 6 months the fans were still moving, there's no real reason for them to blow up as you put it. It doesn't really do anything in the system though, they just did it for fun.

I think you should remove the fans before imerging all the stuff, after 2 days there motors must have blown up and heating even more the all in the mean time... look nice anyway.
