LegoMan666's Mineral Oil PC



It wouldn’t be a case-modding slideshow without the proverbial “mineral oil” PC. [H]ardForum user legoman666 has opted to dunk his red-themed system into a giant vat of the liquid in an effort to achieve a combination of wicked cooling and killer aesthetics on his desk.

The end result offers a pair of ATI Radeon 5850 graphics cards and a Core i7-860 CPU in a setup that barely breaks 65 degrees Centigrade when operating at peak levels--leaving quite a bit of room for overclocking.
