WhiteKnight77 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Someone else did an oil encased PC before. I think it is pretty cool. Who knows what's in store for the future on the cooling front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CR6 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 LOL, that's some pretty impressive custom hardware. The thing that would keep me from considering it is the big mess it would made trying to open it up and replace/upgrade components. The article mentions the Reactor is meant to be a closed box system like Apple's, so does that mean it's for gamers with a lot of money but don't know how to build their own system? The other benefit is how quiet their machines will be, but again, spilling oil all over the place trying to fix some hardware that goes kaput is a definite drawback for me.

NoQuarter Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 In my E-Mail this morning. ____ They do state that it's user-friendly/upgradable on their site, but you would be limited in what you could plug into it -from off the shelf, considering the layout. One potential worry is just how inert that solution actually is...hate to have it start to break down a less than industry standard solvent on some component.
