@@sibzh I think it would work well. the only thing the oil attacks is the plastic parts and there would be contsistant flow accros the gpu as the hot oil rises. and if it doesnt work itll just thermal throttle
Great video! Here are some things that I have been working on. 1. Add perforated floor to tank with about an inch gap between tank and floor. 2. Create reservoir in middle of tank. The reservoir should open up to the perforated floor cavity and be slightly lower than the fill level of fluid. 3. Add radiator to middle tank reservoir. Cold water enters top of radiator and hot water comes out of bottom. This water is on a cooling loop that goes out to fan cooled radiator. (this is to allow multiple tanks to be added to loop) 4. Strip GPU of everything. Heat sink and thermal pads. Clean GPU throughly. I use an ultrasonic cleaner. (I have found 1 row output cards to be the best in space efficiency) Replace factory heat sink with copper foam heat sink to cover main chip only. GPU main die should be as low in tank as possible. 5. All cables must terminate higher than fluid level to control capillary action. 6. This design creates convection flow and eliminates the need for a water/oil pump. Oil comes up from perforated plate cavity and is cool then passes over GPU which heats liquid. Hot liquid rises and falls into cooling reservoir. Radiator cools liquid, forcing it downward towards perforated cavity. 7. There is a different oil that I recommend but I will have to find the name and post it, if you are interested. 8. Do not submerge PSU. The caps in PSU will degrade quickly and fail.
Awesome! Thank you, that means a lot coming from you. Yeah, I could definitely have gotten some free expensinve enterprise grade liguid to demo, but this is one of those things I really wanted to experience step by step, instead of jumping to the end with someone telling me the best setup. Keep up the great work man! You present your material much better than I do for sure. Love your channel! Everyone be sure to sub to Red Fox Crypto !!!
This is awesome! I am having serious overheating issues with some rigs with the current heatwave. It would be awesome to try to do this on a few rigs. Once I see what you can do with the pump to give more cooling, I may try this on a rig. Thanks for showing the small-time miners like me what is possible!
Yes you are exactly right. I'm actually not letting it get above 50C max before I shut things down and start the next experiment. That has only happened once or twice so far. Definitely need active cooling for the oil. Thanks for watching and sharing!
It’s going to have way too much heat if you put in 5-6 cards. Need to make the oil flow to another tank or something. If you let it run for days, the oil is just going to get too hot.
I would add a powerhead (fish tank item) and then use the plastic upright cut down to size. take the riser that holds tank tank gravel up, and put the riser on it then powerhead. It will give you HUGE circulation in the tank. To cool oil, I would use another powerhead to pump oil into another tank, and chill it will a fish tank cooler/chiller. Used in places like Tucson/Tuma Arizona to cool water for Salt water fish. Then 3rd powerhead to pump it bank into the mining tank. If I remember correctly, powerheads can be set for the amount of water/oil moved.
I love all of this!!! Thanks so much. 2 questions if I may. I was looking around for a fish tank cooler/chiller as you described but couldn't find anything. I kept running into expensive cold plates used in kitchens. Do you have a recommendation there?

Props my man, this has been my dream since I was a young man and designed power transformers , I wanted to submerge the whole thing in silicon (even better than mineral oil , well until you spill it) I’ve brought the idea up with CS people but it’s always hand waved as “too messy” It looks like your exchanging the liquid , that seems overly complex , I haven’t got to watch your whole video yet but I’m sure your doing it for some reason. The idea to me was overheating wouldn’t be a problem if you have it oil or silicon immersed. What you should do is have a metal cylinder made of pure #1 aluminum get it thick , maybe 40mm diameter. Threaded top, and fitted for filling will liquid nitrogen. Have a purge valve so it empties as it gets used up. During peak times you could manually inject it like water/methanol in a diesel engine , or perhaps some arduino need can rig it to a thermostat and solenoid system regulated by a program. Cheers
Can you give some updates on how mineral oil affected plastic parts over time ?? From my experience plastic pump and mineral oil won't go along to well...
I'm interested how you cool the oil next. A radiator will obviously be the best but maybe there is a way of doing things passively? Maybe something with heatpipes? I dont know how that would be possible though it does sound interesting
This will definitely run for a year prior to dying. You will have to use Dielectric Fluids Electro cool (EC-100) from Engineered Fluids. How are you dissipating heat? Do you have a heat exchanger /radiator? how big is it?
Yes you are right on my friend! Stay tuned and you will see all of that. And I definitely want to try some of the fluids designed specifically for GPU's next. This entire experiment has got me thinking, have you tried deep cleaning GPU's with mineral oil? As in dust it out and clean it well, then dip it in minderal oil. Man, it seems like this stuff does really well getting dust out of all the cracks and crevices!
Fascinating project. Think the protection against exposed solder joints on the underneath of the PCI-E will need to be removed as the mineral oil will break this down unless mistaken.
Checking, can SSD able to use on mineral oil? ( saw other RUclips mention can’t, but the video is 3 years ago) . What about power supply, also can submerge into mineral oil?
Hey, no mineral oil actually is non conductive. You would definitely be better off using a GPU specific oil which is much more expensive, but I wanted to start at the bottom as this is my first trial.
Nice demonstration. The pump is definitely not doing anything other than adding heat to the oil since the fans should be doing most of the agitating. Would like to see how it performs with even just a simple 2-3 fan radiator hooked up to it externally. You should see a difference in the saturation temp of the system.
Great point! and yes you are correct. Literally wanted to walk through this step by step. The pump is actually for a future test, but I just wanted to see what would happen if I moved the oil around even more right now. Funny story I wish I was filming, I plugged that pump in while it was facing up with no tubing attached. Yeah, so I had a fountain spraying up in the air IN THE OFFICE LOL. I looked ridiculus hopping around trying to get it unplugged!
@@HashRaptor hahaha yeah careful with the business end there! Can't imagine mineral oil being very fun to clean up. You made an interesting point too about the thermal paste breaking down... I wonder how much of a concern that is. My main reason for being interested in an immersion setup is to be able to protect the cards from thermal degradation, humidity/corrosion and dust accumulation. In theory this should reduce maintenance costs and improve longevity, but if you have to service them to replace the thermal paste anyways then if might be a moot point. You mentioned the commercial grade 3M liquid in the vid, but didnt see link in description. Do you plan to test this? Is it supposed to address the thermal paste issue?
I think that with good enough circulation of the oil in the tank taking the radiator off would improve heat transfer from the die into the oil, as it would be more direct. Maybe you could submerge the second card without the radiator? It would be very interesting to see. Cool project!
I am about to put out a video soon on the radiator testing I'm doing. Stay tuned for that and I'll go into this a little more. Don't have the final numbers yet :)
it been almost one month since you did this. is it still working ? have u faced any issues ? i heard some ppl said that their might be some dameg for plastic and rubber over time
Hey, thanks so much for watching. Check out part 2 which is already up. Also, part 3 should go up in the next few days. Trying to get to a stopping point in that testing. Take care!
I don’t mine, but thinking of dabbling. And as a bit of a tech nut I approve of this “experiment. My question is: does the heated oil rise like air above the cool oil. If so, that could be valuable info for card and pump placement. Although it could also be negligible 🤷♂️
I would also like to know the answer to this. It's an 8GB card, not the 4gb version. And it's 44 watts for one card, not two. But still, only 44 watts for 29 MH/sec?? Wouldn't that make it one of the most power-efficient cards available, even better than the 1660 Super? Please give us the good oil @HashRaptor (no pun intended).
fill it with gpu's and run a 100 gph aquarium pump pushing the hot oil up and out, into a cheap automotive radiator or pc water cooler radiator with fans, then run the tube to an aquarium water chiller which cools the oil to 60 f, pumped back into the aquarium
Stupid question: Isn't it like water-cooling? Don't you need to remove the heat from the liquid? Pretty cool experimentation though. I hope it is worth it because water-cooling for mining for example, is not really something you would do if you want to minimize your initial investment :) Looking forward to the next videos
Scavenge pump at the bottom pushing hot fluid through an external 360 mil rad with fans pushing air through. Then have it waterfall off one of the long sides back into the tank.
How can the card produce 29 MH yet only draw 44 watts? Surely that can't be correct. All other reviews I've seen suggest 100 to 120 watts for 28 to 30MH.
Cool experiment, but I’m having trouble seeing the point. I doubt heat is the limiting factor in your hash rate, it’s usually more down to memory stability. With these cards in particular, I doubt any extra cooling is going to allow you to clock the memory any faster.
I would think it would work better taking the fans and cooler off and just have the exposed board....I think that's what BBT was doing with the liquid cooling they were doing...I think the same as others that the fans are going to burn out from the resistance the liquid is making...that's why they are so slow in comparison to how fast they would be turning normally....can't wait to see what you do next...very interesting
No and no, the fans are fine yes there is more resistance but you will find a reduction of heat with in them so in reality the fans should last longer in that situation as for the cooler the surface area isnt large enough to directly remove the heat from a die to fluid interface which still isnt as efficient as metal the system works as is you can not remove the heat sink but if you remove the fans then you still need another way to circulate the fluid or a much larger heat sink
Maybe you could use the liquid cooler with the pump, used for a custom cooling systems, and have the pipes placed on the opposite side of this tank. It could cool down the oil.
I definitely held onto my butt lol awesome Hash Raptor!
Red Panda i would like to see you test something like this too please. 😇
hey bud. do you need the cooler if its submerged in oil?? what would the temp difference be?
Testing some 3080 would be awesome (and risky) 😆
@@sibzh I think it would work well. the only thing the oil attacks is the plastic parts and there would be contsistant flow accros the gpu as the hot oil rises. and if it doesnt work itll just thermal throttle

Is the mineral oil not acidic?
Oil takes too much time to cool down so after a couple of hours you will end up pumping just hot oil. What about car coolant???
Does it actually need the gpu fan when its submersed?🙂

fill it with gpu's and run a 100 gph aquarium pump pushing the hot oil up and out, into a cheap automotive radiator or pc water cooler radiator with fans, then run the tube to an aquarium water chiller which cools the oil to 60 f, pumped back into the aquarium
The problem is that the submersible pumps create heat.
My idea is that remove fan and 2 small acrylic tank. And 1 side is gpu and 1 side is reserve loop in a radiator mechanism. God like cooling!
I don’t understand. How is it fully submerged in liquid and not catching on fire?
like with vaping, it not actually water,its vegetable glycerin which does not conduct electricity
Stupid question: Isn't it like water-cooling? Don't you need to remove the heat from the liquid?
Pretty cool experimentation though. I hope it is worth it because water-cooling for mining for example, is not really something you would do if you want to minimize your initial investment :)

No and no, the fans are fine yes there is more resistance but you will find a reduction of heat with in them so in reality the fans should last longer in that situation as for the cooler the surface area isnt large enough to directly remove the heat from a die to fluid interface which still isnt as efficient as metal the system works as is you can not remove the heat sink but if you remove the fans then you still need another way to circulate the fluid or a much larger heat sink
might as well put everything in the tank to include the psu and motherboard
LOL this is insane!! amazing!
LOL, thanks!
Maybe you could use the liquid cooler with the pump, used for a custom cooling systems, and have the pipes placed on the opposite side of this tank. It could cool down the oil.
Good shit brother
Supercool vid
Subbed dor update!
I’m actually about to start a very similar project for work.
Rock on! Let me know
This is rad ! So interesting. Curious what happens long term
What's ur ambience temp?
Hey, the ambient temp is usually 73F to 75F in that room.
Transformr oil?
You a crazy man :)
haha Indeed!
get a small office fridge coil up some coper tube in side pump the oil though the tube inside the fridge.
...those liquid keeps componets dust free & pristine..mybe add a floating passive heat sink to control oil ∆ temp..
Wi-fi power switch link?
Is it still GPU ok after 9 month
Very excite!
first GPURiser submerged!
I have been in the IT field for around 25 years... Liquids and electronics don't mix... I was waiting to see sparks.
