too right...although I did read about a german guy who was found dead in a video porn booth....the doctor said they "could not assertain the cause of death"
obviously the 5 knuckle shuffle is not valid a valid death on a death certificate

Read somewhere that they have found a new method of cooling, this was awhile ago though.
They sent electric charges through the CPU and was able to cool it down to around 20c on max load. This was from some website, I would find it if I had saved it.
Spose it was a lie?

Electic charges only have the capibility to warm things up. A possibility would be a concept equal to the fridge, which would cause one side to be warm and the other to be cold... It's already in use by extreme overclockers, but the beer keeps me from remembering the name of it.
no hes right...its called thermal electric cooling (TEC) and has been around for a while...not a big seller because of condensation...however they are getting better..i like the look of this cooler because the TEC doesnt kick in unless cpu load is above 40%...nice idea

I think the most promising cooling for mainstream users is ionic wind cooling. Admittedly, a commercial version is quite a way off, but the potential uses for it are endless. Plus it may mean that we can have CPU coolers that can start shrinking in size instead of gaining it.
the problem with anything in research phase is that if it take ay 10 years to develop usually a simpler more cost effective route is found...usually in primary development for example die shrinkages...any new cooling method is most welcome if it performs well...but theres a big difference between R&D and practical application...and TMC actually addresses the issue at the source of the heat rather then the layer above it...it a nice idea but im reconing a tmc application on the atual cpu die rather then the cooler may result in the best cooling solution ever...however...heat is an unwanted by product so eliminating that heat from ever being created..afterall it is a waste of energy...is what cpu manufacturers are gearing towards...in 20 years time who knows maybe cpu coolers will be as absolete as gas lighting...nano tube technology is gonna be the next thing for cpu's and from what the theoretical papers say it comes with a 98% processing efficiency...meaning only 2% lost in heat and other unsavoury by products.compare that against our 65-72% now...but yes its theoretical...check here for more carbon nano tube info
