Re: Headlines - Danamics tackles CPU cooling with liquid metal
Just thought I should pop in to emphasize "the worlds first commercially available liquid metal based CPU cooler". Liquid metal cooling for CPUs is not a new technology, this is just the first time it has been offered to the commercial home user market. Liquid metal cooling has been available for mission-critical server applications for years, using a mix of gallium & some other stuff (indium I think?) pumped around the loop with a magnetohydrodynamic thruster. The one I remember seeing on eBay a couple years back for Xeons resembled a normal water cooling loop more closely, with a separate radiator/fan, pump, CPU block & tubing, rather than an all-in-one tower unit like this one.
There have also been previous promises of consumer-grade liquid metal cooling before, such as Sapphire's Radeon Blizzard X850XTPE.
