is it possible i say yes i am going to try to liquid cool my asus g72gx i found upon taking it all the way apart that there is enough room in the back for two quick connect fittings inserted in rubber garments i will use copper plate and tubing to make hard drive blocks and North Bridge Block the GPU Block is already copper plate i will clean it up and reform copper tubing circuit for it and on the back of the GPU i will make a bllock for the GPU Ram as for the Memory i will make spreaders out of copper with tubes in the ends and direct those into spacially designed pre sinks where the factory fan will pre cool the individual circuits before they are collected into the main external unit where the controller pump radiator and resevoir wwill be located. how does this sound i think ill market it when i get done if you have any ideas just type?:eek:

it would help your cause if you could use more than 2 punctuation marks in your 5 lines of run on text. my eyes glazed over trying to read that after the first line

if u want to go that far... i would recomend u disassembling everything and putting it into a small shell.

even if u could get stuff on such as blocks, there would be no way in hell you could get a barb to go sideways and meet your clearance height on the keyboard tray.

Someone on [H]ard forum did some liquid cooling for his hard drive albeit it's not as mobile as it was before liquid cooling. Here's the link: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1530998&highlight=laptop

he's cooling the heat pipes directly which then cool the cpu.

As you can see its not very effective.
56C load temps is not great considering:

1. Its a laptop processor.
2. the radiator is bigger then that of a H5O.

you would need to get real blocks on for any benifit, otherwise i think a TEC module would be far greater in performance.

The main benefit of watercooling is being able to dispense the heat basically wherever you want with as many radiators as you want. If you are going to be using the stock laptop chassis, cooling performance will be worse than an equally built air cooling setup due to not enough space to disperse the heat.

If you are making your own chassis however I don't see why not.

If you plan to never move the laptop again, you might as well go custom. If you really want to just fit two fittings on the rear, and have everything else external, then it's not really a problem at all, just get very small radius copper tubing, flatten it out (to a certain extent) and use this as your "tubing". Just solder/braze it down to small copper blocks, and run this to your backplate with your two pipes. Just properly insulate, and voila. I think it's a waste of time and energy, but that's just me.
