Ultimate water

that looks interresting

Think PURE h20 still conducts,, I could be wrong.

So it has to be something else then H20.

no, actually PURE h20 is a very good insulator, but as soon as it is exposed to air and stuff, it is no longer pure, and is then conductive.
 
ah that was it, stuff gets disovled into the water and becomes salty etc.

But that ain water then :D
 
It's called Novec 1230, 3M makes it.

It's Dodecafluoro-2-methylpentan-3-one, or CF3CF2C(O)CF(CF3)2.

well if it boils at 50C then it might not be too good for comp submersion...
 
Well, it might not be good for the comp, but would look realllly tight :D . how many of your comps boil huh? but the boiling temp wouldn't be bad for the computer if you make sure it can vent correctly or is cooled. that way the heat is transferred out quickly.
 
well, if you think about it... who cares if it doesn't leak? Sure, it wont damage your computer if it DOES, but... you wont have any coolant in your loop, and your computer fries anyways... (barring thermal shutdown, of course). GG :D
