The Phobya CPU waterblock

[chris.y2k.r1]

Well,

I'm not going to entirely tip my design just yet. What I am saying is there are different ways of acheiving better thermal conductivity than what's been produced so far. I'm actually asserting just the opposiste in a round about way

Actually from what I just checked out, copper is around 800 times better at conducting heat than water so... http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/th...ity-d_429.html I need to work out some numbers. And, it should not be that hard to get the concept right so it's no more risky than a standard LC system. I'm sure people felt the same way about the risks when the accepted LC systems were first proposed.

Has anyone ever tried adding super fine grains of copper to their loops?? If enough of it was in the loop and did not clog anything that should dramatically increase thermal conductivity and the greatly increase the rate of heat transfer.
