Or, cool 6x RTX 2080 Ti and a single CPU on a normal mobo in a 4U space..

The thing with immersive cooling is its actually a very simple concept. From what I read the main reason its not mainstream atm is due to patents and hence the high cost of 'pre-built solutions'.The Natick team also explained the pod's cooling system and how it uses ocean water to cool liquids inside the system.
"The interior of the data-center pod consists of standard computer racks with attached heat exchangers, which transfer the heat from the air to some liquid, likely ordinary water," they said.
"That liquid is then pumped to heat exchangers on the outside of the pod, which in turn transfer the heat to the surrounding ocean. The cooled transfer liquid then returns to the internal heat exchangers to repeat the cycle."

Not quite the same though, more water cooling on a grand scale. Still interesting though.

I wonder what will happen if there's a hard drive failure...or maybe a PSU fails...or a mobo catches fire?
Of course there will be some redundancy built in, and maybe even some Halon gas extinguishers - but it'll be pretty expensive calling out an engineer to fix something !!
