Liquid Cooling experiment by  Corvalent Corp From the video description: This is a video of an engineering experiment we conducted cooling a computer by completely submerging it in liquid. This liquid submersion cooling system is NOT using mineral oil, or any type of oil cooling. This experiment was done using a chemical made by 3M called Novec™ 7000. It has a low boiling point, and leaves no residue or any trace whatsoever behind on the motherboard. The board was equipped with an i3 processor, running at 100% load.  3M™ Novec™ 7000 Engineered Fluid. 3M™ Novec™ 7000 Engineered  Fluid The "magic" behind this is the 3M™ Novec™ 7000 Engineered  Fluid . The liquid has low boiling point, low-toxicity, is 100% Ozone safe, and is used as heat transfer fluid for cooling reactors in pharmaceutical & chemical processing. The best property about this liquid is because its non conductive, you can have total immersion cooling system. No heat sink on all the chip
