Mineral Oil is crap. its a cheap, messy, low performance coolant. Flourinert is a good thing, but is expensive. I am of the oppinion if its worth doing its word doing right,and Mineral Oil is not the right way. ( also if OCZ is using it that should be a clear sign its the wrong way to do it.)

All that stuff above is all true, but you might try mineral oil. I don't know how well it would work as a normal pumped coolant, but it (supposedly) worked for the immersed case the OCZ made. You could just go for a liquid immersed cooling system, completely safe to equipment, not prohibitively expensive. Only two problems I can see are leakage and not being willing to lug 200 pounds of mineral oil to a LAN
