Custom PC's by Puget Systems; Mineral Oil Submerged Computer

WARNING: Submerging your hardware in mineral oil will void your warranty. Do this project only at your own risk. Puget Systems is not liable for any hardware problems, or damage to your personal property. Minerial oil is very difficult, if not impossible to clean from your components once they are submerged.

Aquarium and Cooling Modules

For high end systems (quad core CPUs, 8800GT and higher video cards), you need a radiator to help dissipate the heat. The cooling module pumps the mineral oil through an external radiator, which provides excellent cooling. We have verified adequate cooling with the most extreme hardware on the market at the time we built our test system (Intel QX9770 CPU, 8GB DDR3-1600 RAM, NVIDIA GTX280 video card).

Delivery Time: typically ships in 3-7 business days.

Cost: $511.28

Includes:

Modded aquarium tank	Custom motherboard tray	Power/HDD LEDs
The aquarium needs some brackets removed and trimmed before it can fit a motherboard tray.	We have designed an acrylic motherboard tray for this exact purpose. Each one is waterjet cut, and includes an aluminum IO panel, motherboard standoff, and all necessary screws.	Since the oil is clear, you can attach LEDs directly onto the motherboard headers!
Power switch	Power socket	Right angle power cord
Mounts to the top of the acrylic motherboard panel.	Mouted to the top panel, this power socket is imporant in preventing wicking. Includes a modded extension cord to bottom of tank.	To connect underneath the plastic hood, the aquarium computer requires a right-angle power cord.
Quick disconnects	Magicool Xtreme Quad 480 Radiator	Submerged Mounting bracket
Mounts in a PCI bay, and allows the radiator to be easily removed for maintenance or transportation, and allows an oil filter to be installed in-line if desired.	Attached with quick disconnect tubing to the aquarium, this radiator can easily cool the most extreme setups we have used.	Allows items such as SSD hard drives, water pumps, and just about anything else to be mounted submerged in the oil. Includes all necessary screws.
SATA/Power Pass Through	Submerged Pump w/ 10mm barbs
To run non-SSD hard drives outside the oil, this adapter is necessary if you do not have eSATA on your motherboard. It also provides molex power to the fans on the radiator.	To drive the oil through the radiator, a pump is submerged in the oil, for quiet operation.
Magicool Xtreme Quad 480 Radiator	Includes all tubing, adapters, mod work (cutting, soldering, drilling, etc), and assembly. This work is quite extensive, and is not done if you purchase each component separately from our parts store.

Does NOT Include (but you might want):

Cold Cathode Lights	120mm Fans
The aquarium kit has been specifically designed to allow for the mounting of cold cathode lights to the top of the system, shining down into the oil. Mounting holes provide convenient attachment.	Since there is a wide variation of 120mm fans to choose from, we do not include any with the kits, but rather allow you to order them separately to suit your tastes. The radiator can accomodate four 120mm fans.
