Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong.... Distilled water IS conductive!! VERY conductive in some cases! and will kill computer parts damn near instantly.
The ONLY water NOT conductive is De-Ionized ( or "UltraPure" as it is called in the industry) Which is toxic if ingested, and will ionize if its around some materials so after time it will become conducive depending what particles are picked up into the coolant.
Flourinert is around 500$ through a wholesaler, if you go to 3M its 1000$ per gallon ( per a price sheet I was just sent from my Dad at a conf. in Chicago). Its awesome stuff, but its a major green house gas when its evaporated, so watch for the government to start to regulate it like R-12 Freon soon.
Mineral oil is ok, but I will never ever use it in a cooling system ot submerge my system in it. Its a cheap, and messy way of cooling. Its heat transfer properties are worse then water, and it leaves yer gear all slicked with residue. Also if it leaks it will stain carpet and such.(Some carpets).
Flourinert is the only way to do a submerged system right.
OCTools is cool, but hardly practical
those silly Aussy's have way too much time on their hands I think
hehehehehe But yes his submerged system with the Flourinert ruled.
