I'm using dual 550 Ultra power supplies for my system. I'm going to attempt to tear them apart and build a custom enclosure with water cooling for both of them. Goal, juicy quietness.
Has anyone attempted this before? Can you post some links if you have?

I honestly haven't heard of anyone doing that. How in the world do you plan on getting that to work?
But I really don't think it's really worth all the trouble.

If you screw up, your computer will go up in smoke, and could hurt you. Just some words.

i dont think it can be done?, reason being in a power supply, u dont have individual chipsets wich create heat, there a big coils of wire, and loads of other elctronic gizmos that all create heat, there isnt a specific chip inside, like a procesor of sum kind for example, the only way to cool a psu with water, would be to throw it in the bath

You are a genius! Bathe the PS's in heat in a large resovoir. The coolant is non-conductive...wait...There might be electrolysis and POOF! Could dip both in transformer cooling oil with passive radiators though.
