They call them "liquid cooled" in proper circles...

I think the early 3090s are/were liquid cooled...

The last watercooled system I worked with was an IBM system 390 (circa
1984?). The water reservoir and cooling tower was the water fountain in front
of the building. There was a heat exchanger involved, since the "water" in the
system was actually glycol. I could never consider an open loop system because
of the issues of introduced elements (iron, etc) and ph instability causing
corrosion of the cooling surfaces. In fact, most "real" systems don't use water
for those reasons (its an issue in closed loops too).

Someone makes a freon based cpu cooler. That would be a better idea.
