Yes vodka can get subzero chilled without freezing but so can plain radiator fluid used in the cars which is a mix from water & glycol.
However the glycol isn't just added to prevent freezing, it's also to prevent rust and to make the engines waterpump last longer with a kind of "lubing" effect.
Now subzero liquid in the computer, vodka or glycol would still cause condensation which can harm your hardware, precautions must be taken.
But if you go with vodka it would also most likely kill you pump faster than if you use water/glycol due to dryed out bearings etc.
Note as a otto engine guy I'm used to metal and the way it reacts, so others may correct me if i'm wrong but when I think of these plastic pumps
(which often ain't no more than regular garden pumps) ppl use in their pc's it just seem like a bad idea to use vodka. Specially since it wouldn't give you any real benefit.
Pc's doesn't really have any big heatsource like engines does, 100-150W at most and you won't see any benefit from start using other chemicals than water. Really It's more about the blocks and how well they are constructed.
Drink the vodka instead why don't ya. :)
