Oil cooled PSU?
I'm building a custom, fanless WC setup and I want to eliminate the fan noise in the PSU as well.
I looked at some custom WC PSU setups, but the whole thing (soldering, grounding and all that fuss) is a bit out of my leaque and potentially dangerous, so I remembered the "submerged PC" idea...
Couldnt I just make a watertight plexiglass enclosure, put the PSU and a simple waterblock in it and fill the whole enclosure with clear mineral oil?
The heat from the PSU components gets into the oil, the oil itself gets cooled by the waterblock.
No soldering, no fans, no electric contact, great looks
