While baby oil is primarily marketed as a generic skin ointment, other applications exist in common use. It is often used on infant "diaper rashes" to ease the inflammation. Similarly, it may alleviate mild eczema, particularly when the use of corticosteroid creams is not desirable. Mineral or baby oil can also be employed in small quantities (2–3 drops daily) to clean inside ears. Over a couple of weeks, the mineral oil softens dried or hardened earwax so that a gentle flush of water can remove the debris. In the case of a damaged or perforated eardrum, however, mineral oil should not be used, as oil in the middle ear can lead to ear infections. It is also a recommended way of removing an insect from the ear of a human. A few drops can drown the insect, which can then be easily removed. |

QUOTE(Serpentarius @ Apr 9 2009, 03:21 PM) oil is not electric conductor. water only conduct electric ohh...(electric cannot go through) if you really want to use mineral oil ..... get baby oil (it's mineral oil) or other extra (double) purified mineral oil for better efficiency baby oil is purchasable in supermarket, pharmacy, or kedai runcit avoid fragrance ones, coz those are addictives you could also use silicone gel (lubricant), which purchasable in supermarkets, autoshops, hardware shops. keep in mind, silicone gel is not a good heat conductor, compared to the mineral oil besure to keep in mind to get a a good pump which can deal with high vicosity fluids ... if you want to keep the oil cooled this is an old thread ... someone should close this thread (my previous post is 2007!) thanx for the explanation! |

This vid explains a bit on the usage results. The only thing I'm wondering right now is. do i really need to take off the fans and seal the bottom up the cpu IF I'm using cooking oil? |

it can work without that. But seems it will affect the stability and the lifespan of the hardware...
You can try it if you have a extra hardware... Anyway. Dun fix it if its not broken. Mod at your own risk. |
