    Saw an article on the big boys doing this. Here is a link to their site. Interesting video section. They did say they also sealed the HDD and they are submerged also.

    Interesting that this only saves 50% of the power needs for cooling but the real savings I suspect are on the front end. It would also seem to me that maintenance and upgrade cost would be higher due to the immersion but the lack of clean room, refrigerant and halon type extinguishers off sets a lot of those costs.

This is something I stumbled upon some months ago, and while I'm not really planning to do it on my current rig, I'd like to know if something like that would make any sense or if it's better than water cooling (or standard air-cooling) somehow. EDIT: sigh, noticed just now that there is...
