    Anyone ever heard of someone putting a fog-like machine in thier pc or attaching it to it?

    I've seen heaps of people asking about them.
    and they generally get the same answer.
    Fog machines leave some sort of residue / vapour that will propably stuff something up.

    Has anyone ever used CO2 to make a fog-like effect?

    The only downside to this is it is very high pressure and would need some sort of regulator to get it to slowly spray.

    Carbon Dioxide is a colourless gas, the fog caused by the release of CO2 is due to the temperature drop that occurs when a high pressure gas becomes a low pressure gas condensing moisture out of the air. Therefore using the formula [Water + Electical Components] = bad news, we can surmise that it's not such a good idea.

    I had considered using a Co2 canister rigged to a removable HDD caddy. When the caddy is inserted, a certain amount would be released under the case and the temperature difference would cause the Co2 to fall and be visible. It would also make a cool hissing noise. Was only an idea, sounded pretty cool at the time but a little OTT.

    You could always put the fog in a seperate chamber, then run some lasers though it... now that would look cool.

    That would only work for a limited time though.

    might last you the length of say a lan party... I'm sure if you sheathed your connectors and maybe watercooled your pc, a conventional oil burning fog machine would be fine, but it does leave a lil bit of residue
