Cooling Water Block Design

I never intended my comments to imply I was serious, just that such an ability could exist Back in college I was able to take coursework in learning about this stuff, and received some training in the use of the equipment at the time, but I currently work in software. As such, I haven't kept up with the current state of MEMS.
If a process exsists, it becomes a numbers game of how many pieces you can cram into the machine for a single process step. Imagine a 'magic' factory that paid for 1 CNC machine but somehow has enough to simultaneously make between 1 and 1000 pieces in a batch. Nanofab is a bit like that. A single machine doesn't care how many dies are on that wafer, the processing is exactly the same. This is where the cost savings come in.

 

how about these two

or this one (for a low flow system)

about two years back i designed and built a water block which worked very well.

the key two remember is to balance surface area with flow rates, and pressure in the block.

Aluminium and copper are good materials to use due to there cost, however copper is rising in price as there is a shortage due to china importing tonnes of it.

Silver works welll, this is due to the amount of heat energy that can transferred threw the materails cross-section. 'thermal conductived'.

and if your really rich you could just someone to cut a diamond to act as the core of the block, and the interface point of the block to the CPU. diamond has the highest conductivity for a solid material i believe. as there maybe a few gases that performe better.

Diamond 900 – 2320 K
Aluminium 237 k
Copper 401 k
Silver 429 k

i will try and find a pic of my block and show you.

 

I have read all that before but what do you think of those 2 blocks posted before

 

Silver has an added derived benefit-biocidal properties.

Also, take into account when designing a block that it has to be made somehow.

I'm personally researching nonmetallics for casting, and I do believe I've hit paydirt, I'm currently looking at what I need to start up...

 

theres my project log i started, but iv been busy ever since so no updates on the log.

you still didn't answer my question, do those 2 blocks look good

nice blocks
