I found a web site is Thailand that sells those fish oil capsules that take care of the fatty acids. I am not sure that they are healthy to eat but I am tempted by the cost. Any suggestion how to have better control over the food safety of my diet supplements?

if you want to do this correctly use phase change liquid with pelters on the outside of a conductive box to lower the temp to -130 phase change liquid will freeze solid and maintain an thermal constant over the entire computer then overclock the hell out of it, energy consumption will be incredible possibly parallel computing remains a better option

wholesaler charges about $60 a gallon – non-flammable too.

try cyclomethicone — it’s a light silicone oil about the consistency of water. It looks like it would be easy to pump. It’s easy to get, non-toxic, used in cosmetics, perfumes, and hair products as a carrier. Cyclomethicone evaporates easily, though, so your setup needs to be sealed. Cost is not cheap — saw some on eBay for $75 a gallon, so you would have to be careful about your design.

I think Chris has to be joking with the beta-mercaptoethanol (BME). This stuff is a highly toxic poison:

and if your health’s not worth saving, it is possibly the worst smelling substance in existance. No, not even if a funny way.
If you’re concerned about microbes, be the first person to have lights in your case that actually do something and put a UV sterilizing lamp over the oil.

What requirements for a pump for the mineral oil would I need if I was going to submerge an P3 motherboard running at 733? I was thinking about overclocking this P3 so I could get a little more out of it for Linux.

built a revised version of the 2nd machine, and the heat has gone up, but so has the performance specs… anyone out there have a design for a home-made radiator/heat exchanger that might siphon the oil, and return it cooler?
