Great Heat load indicating window

Hi just thought about an idea for all the case modders out there.
If you have a window and a liquid cooling system you could fabricate a bubbler window. Here is a picture of the idea....

Uhm... we discussed the idea of having a res/airtrap as a window already. The problem is that it would be fragile, impede the view and who wants to add bubbles anyways?

It would be best as a separate gizmo on its own, and it's just too much trouble.

well if you look at it, the design he did does keep the cooling system isolated from the bubble thing.

I think its a pretty cool idea. Now explain to me how you are going to get the Nitrogen/alcohol into a container thats sealed well enough not to give into the pressures that will be created if a system gets hot?

Simple: add a barb to the top, on which you put a balloon.
