I'm going to mill my own VGA block that covers the memory, and then has a wide channel that goes over to the GPU.
Should I make microchannels (1.5-3mm) over the GPU? This would dissipate heat faster, but would kill flow. Would I see a performance increase? (will vmod in the future) Would any increase outweigh the flow kill? I would use my 3 cpu barbs as a "Y", and run the gpu on one side, and the rest of the blocks on the other side.
If I didn't make channels, I could make the GPU channel wider, and have the heat spread through the base under the wider channel. Think this would work? How thick would the base have to be for this to be effective?
