Toblerone Gaming Heat Sink.
Toblerone has one identifier, its triangular shape. ☝️🤓
Till it all gets to temp then it won't do much. It needs some more surface area to covect heat better.
With enough fins you don't need fans.
the other option is
only fans
Would a slow small fan still make a huge difference to the cooling here? Completely passive cooling seems like something that would only make sense in very specific professional environments (like needing an ultra low sound floor in an audiology chamber or recording studio).
I had a roommate who was getting his doctorate in chemical engineering, specifically focused on graphene. He was able to demonstrate how doping the materials in a heat sink to alter their ability to "release" heat, and then organizing these intentional hotspots along the length of the fins, you could create an active airflow using a stationary object.
But then his lab manager killed his grant and instead put him on a project partnered with BMW to make their bumpers more marketable.
what is that white box on the bottom connected to
Is your motherboard connected to two giant case-sized heatsinks? I'm struggling to see the big picture here
Oops, all heatsink
Right? I'm like wtf is this setup?
With big enough copper block it might not matter (like the size of a house, but of the good quality stuff not that shit Ea-Nasir sells).
A block of diamond would be even better (copper being at 401 W/mK, Diamond at 3320 W/(mK), almost 10x better)
But only 3-5 diamonds are generated per chunk, requires an iron pickaxe, and usually doesn't start appearing regularly until Y level 14.
Meanwhile copper can have up to 16 veins of copper per chunk, requires a stone pickaxe, and appears most frequently at Y=48.
Copper is clearly more accessible for making ore blocks.
Wait a sec, this isn't !minecraft@lemmy.world
with the way prices are going, carbon based heat dissipation may become the preferred option
how pretty would it be if it was a tree-like crystal structure
I am suddenly reminded of that Tech Ingredients video on YouTube where he turned a A/C window unit into a liquid heat pump.
NO that swindler gave me subpar copper!
I don't believe you. You probably didn't even write a support ticket about it
