Default About to refurbish 18 month old loop & New PC on the horizon

Hey people.

My loop is 18 months old now, and there is so much white gooey blobby crap growing in it that the water is almost stopped by it, hehe

Specs:
Purpose: Silent (no fans anywhere)
CPU: 1800+
Graphics card: 10+ years old
Ram: 1GB
HDDs: 250 + 160GB

So yeah, it was my first attempt.
The radiator is passive. its a crap design. its not very efficient and its heavy as hell. the whole PC weighs about 40 KG, its a real bitch to move
To its merit, it is unique in that its one of the only portable self contained fanless silent rigs that doesnt need refilling.

So yeah, i'd kind of like to always keep it around for sentimental reasons

Its kind of my internet/work PC.

For my 2nd PC which i'm gonna get soon, the priorities are the following:
Lightweight as possible (portable)
Fast and capable for games. (lanning)
Bonus: quiet.

I wanna get a lanboy case for it. (4kg)

So maybe i'll just run it aircooled for a while, or get some zalman thing :/

I'd be open to trying out an Evap bong on it, they are pretty quiet and light.
I'd also be open to trying a heatercore on it, obviously though thats going to increase the weight. But i'd be okay with a slight increase in weight if it kills the noise significantly.

Any Ideas?
