New CPU cooling design
Nice find :thumbleft:
If he can get it to production status, it could be to the computer what cats eyes were to roads, could be very interesting ....
The cats eyes guy worked for the UK Transport Ministry of the day, so he got ziltch out of the revolution he initiated. Lets hope the US Govt department this guy works for has a suitable bonus scheme, although I fear it will be no where near what its really worth if it got to production.
If it works for CPUs, it will also work for GPU card cooling, now there is an enticing thought - this thing could really turn the computer world on its head. Who'd be a waterblock manufacturer rofl
Interesting times ..... no more moaning from wives re space heaters, so as long as we can hide the energy bill we got it cracked rofl

much better cooling
hardly any noise
no dust bunnies
low power consumption
He's on to a winner methinks :thumbup:
BTW Percy Shaw made a bundle of money from his cats eyes invention.

The "cats eye" guy Zydor mentions was called Percy Shaw, and lived in Halifax, West Yorkshire, about 2 miles from where I live.
Percy became a millionaire from his invention. He lived in a mansion, (now no longer standing) and owned a Rolls Royce car.
Always the eccentric, he used to frequent his local pub with his mates, but refused to drink the pub`s beer, preferring to bring his own bottles.
He also brought his own coal to the pub on cold winter nights, as he thought the landlord was too stingy with the heating!
