Still planning my first PC build.  From what I have seen, my options for cooling include air cooling, liquid cooling, and a submerged oil system.  I have no desire to do submerged oil, but my industrial design background makes me feel like water cooling isn't outside of my capabilities.  I am curious; is there any other cooling system that I have missed in my research?

Also curious to know if I can Frankenstein a mini-fridge to create a PC build that is actually refrigerated.  Has anyone attempted this before?  

^Not two minutes after i posted this i found Linus' video on a pc build in a refrigerator so please excuse my ignorance...

As mentioned using Novec is probably the most unique you'll get without doing something that doesn't involves subzero cooling using chillers or phase change cooling. There is also evaporative cooling as demonstrated here.
