I personally see it much more efficient and safer to run the evaporator through water to make a water chiller and cool the computer using that. Although there will be a difference between the refrigerant temperature and the water temperature, it will not be that great of a difference. I tested it and the water temperature difference is around 7 F. I dont believe that is a great difference. Running copper through your computer is a tough task. Milling the copper blocks is even worse.
