Abstract
Computer technology has improved tremendously over the years. It all started in the early 1800s when the U.S. government was facing the serious problem of calculating the U.S. census results due to population growth. Mathematics was always the primary source of inspiration behind computer invention. Nowadays, we implement the computer into every aspect of our life. We have become so advanced in our computer technology that many of us don’t know the basics of computer technology. We go to a retail store and buy a computer that either doesn’t meet our requirements or is being sold overpriced. After years of using a computer, it usually slows down and may stop functioning shortly after. Most people aren’t aware that heat is the primary killer of a computer. The idea of keeping our computer cool is similar to the idea of keeping our body hydrated throughout the day. A central processing unit for a computer produces considerable heat when the computer is on and running multiple applications. The more applications it’s running, the more heat it will produce. Our environment also plays a key role in dissipating heat out of the computer. If the room temperature is high, it will be more challenging for the computer to perform optimally. The goal of my project is to explore some of the cooling methods that can be used to build a computer from scratch. For this project, the main focus will be on a Liquid-cooled system. Water cooling systems are becoming more common for high performance computers, but a mineral oil-cooled PC is so rare, many enthusiasts aren’t even aware that it can be done.
