Just had this crazy idea, that i wanted to share with u all.
Now direct die watercooling has been a pain with amd cpu´s aswell as older intel ones. But now that intel has been kind enough to cover the die with a peice of copper, maybe one could try to watercool the IHS directly?
My idea was THIS:
Get a peice of plexi/lexan thats just as big as the cpu,make a inlet at the top,possibly with small drilled jettubes,make 2 or mabye even 4 outlets down near the base, mill out a perfect fit with the cpu at the base. Use something like marine goop or any other good water-resistant glue to bond the acrylic wb to the cpu. Maybe apply some 2-component epoxy on the outside, to make a good seal.
If all goes well u would have a jet-imprigment (allmost)direct die waterblock.(without the minicups, unless someone is crazy/brave enough to drill them into the IHS).
So what do u all think? Pure fantasy/wishful thinking or might it actually work?
Does anyone know anyone else who have tried this?
thanksss
