Can I use a sodium-cooling system for my PC?

Because water-cooling does not work anymore and I think a
sodium-cooling system could be great for my 1.21 Terahertz machine and
the fusion power supply.

Why not cool with the liquid helium from the superconducting coils of
your fusion generator?

Maybe he's using room-temp superconductors...

Besides, escaping helium makes him tawk funny...

What you really want is "NaK" a mixture of sodium and potassium. It's a
liquid at room temperatures and above. But if it comes in contact with
water, it will burn explosively. The main advantage of NaK is its very high
thermal capacity -- a small volume can carry a lot of heat. However, plain
old water is just as good in any situation that you and your computer will
be involved in.

Good point! NaK may even assist the CPU or the IP stack in servicing "Ack -
Nak" requests!

OTOH, Heavy Water may serve dual purpose as fuel and coolant, depending on
where it's routed...
