Here is a comp I built with VIA Epia PD mobo and the earlier 200watt PS. Its about the size of a stick of memory. It has worked for a few years, never a prob.
I took it apart and built a aquaqium with the mobo stuff. But here is a link of when it was in Legos.

They make very little heat. Some of the Mobos dont even need fans on the CPUs. I had my Lego comp running for a couple of years. Now I put all the Hardware in a aquarium comp.

The thing people don't usually notice is that it's a DC to DC power supply. Not an AC to DC power supply. Not that's it's not small, but it's a 12V input and all it's doing is regulating the 12V and stepping down the 12V to 5V, 3.3V and -12V.

I would think plain ol tap water, the mobo and the water look to be sepperate.
