    3M Novec submerged computer

    May seem counterintuitive, but a heatsink (HS) would make matters worse. In addition to the required thermal interface for HS attachment, there is the conduction resistance within the heatsink itself. In this case it would be higher than the boiling resistance. Remember, the lid of the...

    There have been some questions about the performance and how we achieve it. The lids of the GPU and CPU are modified by soldering onto them a coupon of copper that has been modified through the application of a porous copper boiling enhancement coating. In the case of the GPU, that coupon has...
