I know a few people that run water cooling for there video card. When you spend 300 to 400 and even more on water cooling, an extra 15$ for a gpu water cooling block really isnt that much.

They are sealed units.

Same. 240v running through a water leakage ain't exactly safe. Lets hope your circuit breakers are functioning properly....lol

theres a system where the case is water tight and the entire case is filled with vegetable or mineral oil. the oil is non conductive or reactive and so its just a normal system cept its full of oil so the fans blow oil over the normal heat sinks. theres a small pump at the back that pumps the oil out into a small oil cooler with a fan and then pumps it back into the system.
