I have been using my water rig for two months now and it is a dream. I have a 20litre water res, no radiators and no fans.
How do I water cool the
power supply?

You could run it through a high temp bag or something.

Or, ofcourse the infamous flourineart <sp> by 3m
You can submerge any electrical component in that stuff, but it's 500 bucks a gallon ;)

You could buy a water cooled PS from Koolance, but it's pretty anemic for a PS.

What you could try, if you are ambitious, is to use a waterblock that is bolted onto the aluminum heatsink inside the PS - you'll have to modify the Al HS, but it might work.

Intersing project!
