Just been reading about this on AOAforums.

looks like refrigerant based cooling is going very mainstream in the supercomputer world.

2million+BTU cooling power this thing has.

read it here (there is a page before it)

This has always been the case. IBM mainframes (3081, 3084)were using watercooling in the early 1980's and also using helium (I think) in their TCM modules.

Yep it would be very easy to attach to the G5 and it seems Apple continues to leave the multiple jumpers on the bottom of the CPU with room to move up.

Is there a linux/OS X version of super pi?

Here is a close-up picture of one of my G5 2Ghz CPU's bottom side.
