AI bullshit aside, this seems like a pretty cool development, if it's as effective as they say it is. Wonder how easy it will be to produce it en masse, though.

So they’ve basically turned the entire CPU/GPU into a water block? Yeah this is kinda neat.
idgaf about the ai hype bullshit, does this have applications for real processors?
microfluidic cooling has also been a hot topic in power electronics for some years now. Higher power density materials (GaN, SiC..) allow for miniaturization of the devices, but then the bigass heatsinks offset the improvement, so microfluidics are developing quickly. Good read (may not have access, but just ask sci hub...): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2666-1
Apparently yes.
A family passes a broken down Buick..... Dad! Is that another one?
Yup! Microfluidics engines never accounted for real life rust and debris!
Were the engineers stupid?
No, son, management, always management.
Those are definitely words.
