Yeah. Basically, come up with something to be watercooled that's just ridiculous and pointless (like this post). Since there's been a hightened popularity in water cooling ram, ssds and power supplies.

 

For me, id be astonished if I ever found out that someone water cooled a water cooler, or even water cooled a desk or monitor.

a raspberry pi, because there's actually something there to be watercooled (as opposed to before mentioned mouse and keyboard, which dont really have anything producing heat), but its effect is literally zero.

They do exist, they are cold-plates that sit on or around the HDD.
