That guy has a good idea, but he seems to have overlooked that if he removes a card, a thin layer of insulating oil would form over the connections, and it would be near impossible to clean it off.
If you just wanted to overclock the CPU, you could mount a peltier on the CPU, put a thermistor (sp?) on another part of the CPU, and built a simple thermostat that keeps the CPU at just the right temperator. That way you don't have to worry about condensation if the CPU halts for some reason and the peltier supercools it.
How about inserting the motherboard into a freezer with some kind of humidity control to eliminate condensation. That way you could overclock the entire system
bus.
