Why? Modern power supplies are very efficient and don't produce much heat. Some don't even turn the fan on until they are under heavy load. Water cooling something that runs on about 400 volts seems like a bad idea.

MODERATORS
That's why this is more of a concept than an actual product.
It would make sense for them to experiment to potentially try and find new market segments.
What is the target demographic for this product
Water cooling enthusiasts.
Putting your power supply on the same liquid cooling loop as your CPU and/or graphics card sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
