FC-77 is for cooling due to its properties. As a cooling fluid it is actually no where near as good as water. I had a little design check and i reckon that at best i could get storm performance out of a direct die cooling of pcs with fc77. Of course that fluid can be made to be below freazing easily but it still is alot of effort. Other stuff may work but not as well. FC 30 etc are likely to be very viscous which means that arent good for cooling

The pressure differential problem is there and will always be there. You cannot get around it. Seals etc are hugely complicated for what you are doing. It would be far easier to have a sealed case in your basement. This is doable and is done in industry.

Watercool the hds and vibrationally seal and damp them would work as well. Could be totally silent.
