  • Quote: (I'm assuming the efficiency you're assuming is related to the convection of a fluid.) Yeah... I just read that somewhere recently. Actually though... I don't know how it mounts... I could be wrong... it just seems like it goes out …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Matsu There's another pic from the side that shows two more heat pipes comming off the top of the CPU. Interesting stuff. Where is this pic? I figured there must have been some there. That huge heatsink wouldn't …
  • Quote: Originally posted by segovius iSkin Well... I was actually thinking it is strange that someone hasn't just made color face plates -- like the actual faceplae of the Ipod not just a cover, especially considering that it is just plastic.…
  • Quote: After sitting and reading through all the pages of this debate, it really seems that iSegway is trying to stir up a heated argument I have been polite to those that have been polite to me. If you treat me with disrespect or are close min…
  • Would it be possible for a company to manufacture different colored faces? I wonder why no one has done it(i might be wrong, maybe someone has)?
  • Quote: The basement or closet is probably not a good idea but if you believe it, you should suggest it to Apple. It seems inevitable, unless we get a room temp superconductor, that computers will require somekind of way to get that excess heat o…
  • You didn't answer the question. lol You can dance around it all you want... but you know you are wrong. Fawkes even proved you were wrong when you said heat pipes weren't as efficient as I said they were. Quote: albeit, under extenuating …
  • Quote: Ahh yes, the secret condition appears. You envision somebody using a "copper rod" to duplicate the function of a heat pipe? Just answer this Randy... this should be entertaining... if your were to take TWO of these heaptpipes... one with …
  • Another board pic..
  • Quote: None of that makes sense to you? Then how can you so confidently ascertain what is a thermal conductivity property and what is not? Because I know you are just trying to bs your way out of admitting you were wrong. I have quoted a college…
  • Randy... you can nitpick my statements all you want... but I have still proven that you were absolutely wrong. "Water-cooled" systems ARE more efficient than "air-cooled" systems. You can keep crying about it and trying to derail the discussio…
  • Quote: Conductivity refers to a coefficient of inverse resistance in a solid or a [i]non-moving liquid/gas. It is applicable in conjunction with surface area wrt overall heat transfer. What is this BS? lol Quote: Heat transfer is the end re…
  • You love me, don't you Randy? Quote: Perhaps if you substituted the term "heat transfer" in place of conductivity, that would be a more applicable statement What is the difference between "conduct" and "transfer" Einstein? http://forums.ap…
  • Must be a heat pipe... I read somewhere that heatpipes have 100 times the thermal conductivity of diamonds and diamonds have 4 times the thermal conductivity of copper... which is the most conductive metal. Wow... so this is pretty cool. I was w…
  • Quote: At what cost could it be added by Apple? At what cost could it be added aftermarket? This is something I don't understand... what part of a watercolling system is so expemsive? These systems that can be purchased now are so expensive b…

  • http://forums.macrumors.com/showthre...threadid=37488 Quote: A Spymac thread posted this weekend reveals some screenshots and information about a feature of the new PowerMac G5's called "Slewing". The feature is located in the Energy Saver Co…
  • That is very interesting! Do you have a dual citizenship? If so, you are extremely lucky. : D I love Japanese culture... everything - architecture, cuisine, art, technology, japanese craftsmanship. You have an interesting perspective... you m…
  • Quote: The fact that the current G5's use the 9-fan setup is because it provided the best balance of cost, reliability, quietness, and performance. I don't know about this... just because Apple isn't doing it doesn't mean it wasn't the best solu…
