"I've not really wanted to
get into the expense of trying a liquid cooled system. But the idea of
a silent system, one using heatpipes and massive heatsinks appeals to
me, because I miss having a silent workroom."
I think the personal computer is a bit of a bad design (in may ways),
but just regarding the cooling aspect of it."

"Liquid cooled"..?
Umm?.. thin 1/4" soft copper pipe wrapped around hot things like how a
still is made, but not touching anything..
Run a tiny 12 volt pump with plumbing antifreeze in it.. Cool the pump,
and a coil of copper near the pump with a small silent case fan.. Be
sure to filter the air that touches the fan..
Or use the business parts of a small air conditioner or dehumidifier..
Extreme caution with cooling devices.. Freon is safe in a peaceful
environment, but when freon meets flame, it turns the freon into an
extremely deadly poison, is why car and house fires are so dangerous..
What if someone built a tower in a cylinder shape..? Properly placed
fans might set up a turbo effect for better cooling.. Plus, round
towers could be decorated such to be hidden/disguised, or part of a
room's décor..
Take a looksee at the bathroom and kitchen fan covers in your home..
Are they totally plugged with dust..?
Have you looked at the fans inside your tower yet..?
