“If you drop *any* electrical appliance into a vat of oil, there’s a 99% chance that it’s going to boil. Regardless if there’s a heating element under it or not.”
That’ll be why power transformers are in oil baths then?
Anyway, I did think initially that it was unlikely a mb produces that much heat, but went along with it. However there are several factors I missed:
The large surface area of the oil and (metal) container are going to radiate a hell of a lot of heat. Just keeping the oil at about 100C in a 20C room would need a fair bit of power - think about oil heaters, it’s basically the same thing. Or a deep fat fryer which is also quite powerful, but incredibly well insulated compared to this set up. Point is, the heat on a motherboard mostly comes from the processor. Even if it produced as little as 50% of the total heat that would mean a square inch of silicon is dissipating about 500W which I find unlikely. In fact it would probably be twice that because of it’s small size compared to the amount of oil. There’s no way any processor can handle a kilowatt, not even many whole computers use that much.

Ugh.
Yes, oil (usually mineral oil, not vegetable) can be used to dissipate heat from your motherboard, it won’t blow anything up. The oil doesn’t conduct electricity, but it conducts heat pretty well. It’s not that uncommon to have an oil-cooled system in the sort of geek circles where that kinda thing is cool.
However, not enough heat is generated by the system to get the oil to a temperature where you could cook with it. Hence, they’ve used a heating element placed under the whole setup, to get the oil to temperature. So, as others have said, this is FAKE - the motherboard is not providing the heat being used to cook.
Two other things; the byproducts of cooking in the oil may well include stuff which does conduct electricity, meaning once you start cooking stuff, yes, there’s a fair chance the motherboard is going to get blown up; and secondly, if you’re deliberately heating up the oil in which your motherboard is submerged then it’s likely to experience… extreme thermal failure, like melting, for example. Melted solder on your chips sound good?
This is both fake and retarded.
