PCW has learnt that Very-PC will start selling oil submerged servers within
12 months time.
The Sheffield based PC manufacturer claims to own UK patents to the
technology which will give it a foothold in the server market.
Speaking to PCW, managing director of
Very-PCPeter Hopton said development was underway and consumer PCs will follow.
Hopton claimed the process was ideal for rack servers, since processors can
be packed more densely than in air cooled machines.

have experimented with oil submerged PCs for years to varying degrees of
success. Previous attempts have placed hardware into a water-tight container and
let electrical components come into contact with mineral or vegetable oil
instead of air.
The oil coolant, combined with pumps, acts as a large heatsink that transfers
heat away from critical components.
