      Hey, We posted details on this on another comment, but summarizing it here for visibility: Happy to provide some details on the granted patent - feel free to read more here. Patent name: System and method for providing direct silicon footprint microfluidic cooling for electronics. USPTO Patent number: US12080626B1. Here is the link: patents.google.com/patent/US12080626B1/en For avoidance of doubt, we’ve been working on this research for years during our time at Georgia Tech and feel extremely comfortable with the engineering backing of our product. If you have any technical questions, feel free to ask them here and we’ll respond. Regarding your other point citing basic pin fins, a pin fin array or geometry can not be patented as it is common sense for anyone skilled in the art. However, increasing the density of such pin fins is a challenge in order to provide more surface area for cooling when confined to the size of the chip. Our pin fin density is at least double that of other commercial blocks, which enhances both the heat transfer coefficient and surface area, two key parameters here. Granted that the flow restriction is higher since smaller fins are used, our fin array has significantly shorter lengths than any other technologies in the market, hence the pressure drop is balanced. Our block focuses on the chip footprint. We would like to see a "basic pin waterblock" remove 500 W of heat from the Core i9 14900K while keeping the chip’s temperature below 95 °C. In fact, we have published research in scientific journals proving we can remove 1000 W of heat across 1 cm^2. To put this in perspective, the i9 14900k has a chip area of 2.57 cm^2, which means that we could theoretically remove 5 times more heat than what this chip actually produces in extreme conditions. Happy to share those articles if interested.

      Hey! Thanks for commenting. We posted a very detailed reply in our latest video regarding this, but here is a summary: 1) Bare copper with gallium (liquid metal): Copper reacts and alloys with Gallium, creating a really thin layer or stain, but this is NOT corrosion and the thermal effect is minimal due to the negligible thickness of such layer. 2) Here is some more detail by Steve from Gamers Nexus, who did an amazing job testing both of these cases, and in his words and own conclusions: “Gallium has a negative potential and copper has a positive potential, which will cause the gallium to migrate and plate the copper. In terms of performance, the copper RETAINS all of its original performance characteristics (in our testing), and so looks a lot worse than it is in reality. This is a stain, NOT heavy pitting or corrosion.” Around min 13:00 on his YT video: ua-cam.com/video/cQaqUyKVIEE/v-deo.html Regarding your other point, definitely agree. Intel should thoroughly think this through prior to launch. Unfortunately we work with what we have, but would love to see some bare die chips (no IHS) directly from the source and let enthusiasts do the rest. Again, appreciate the comment and let us know if you have further questions.

      Hey guys! Thanks for commenting. There are a few articles debunking this topic, which were not discussed in the video for the sake of length. But your opinion is important to us and also gives us a good idea of what the customer perceptions are here. If the demand is there in the future, we are open to offering a nickel-plated solution as well. That being said, here are some of the underlying engineering principles behind bare copper’s effectiveness: 1) Bare copper with gallium (liquid metal): Copper reacts and alloys with Gallium, creating a really thin layer or stain, but this is NOT corrosion and the thermal effect is minimal due to the negligible thickness of such layer. 2) Nickel-plated copper with gallium: There is also a reaction but it is slower and therefore the staining is reduced compared to bare copper. In both of these cases, the thin liquid metal layer remains between silicon and bare copper or nickel-plated copper, regardless of the staining (thin film alloy) since the liquid metal, at least in the proportions we use in the video, is more than enough to both create a thin alloy and a liquid layer. Our first prototypes date to 2018 and have two systems daily-driven like this with no significant effect on thermal performance. Your comments gave us an idea to do a future video showcasing both units, which in 6 years of operation have never been serviced since they don’t need to. Finally, here is some more detail by Steve from Gamers Nexus, who did an amazing job testing both of these cases, and in his words and own conclusions: “Gallium has a negative potential and copper has a positive potential, which will cause the gallium to migrate and plate the copper. In terms of performance, the copper RETAINS all of its original performance characteristics (in our testing), and so looks a lot worse than it is in reality. This is a stain, NOT heavy pitting or corrosion.” Around min 13:00 on his YT video: ua-cam.com/video/cQaqUyKVIEE/v-deo.html Again, appreciate the comment and we will keep this in mind moving forward.

      @@emcoolinc Hey! I can't agree with you there. Corrosion of Gallium on copper is a well documented phenomenon (unless you use something without Gallium which doesn't seem to be the case here). It has nothing to do with the negative or positive potential. There is a nice publication about this topic in the International Journal of Thermophysics. You can find it in Volume 39, article number 113 from 2018. Grain boundary embrittlement is especially a problem on aluminium because the grains are so much bigger than on copper but it also happens here. Amalgamation is the much bigger problem weakening the copper and forming brittle areas on the surface which much reduced thermal conductivity.

      Hey guys! Thank you so much for engaging with our content-we really appreciate it! When it comes to overclocking, higher voltages mean higher temperatures. However, if you can manage the heat effectively and keep temperatures low, you can actually extend the lifespan of your CPU. We've been pushing this CPU hard for nearly a year, and it shows no signs of degradation. Our Cinebench scores remain consistent and repeatable, with full system stability. This is thanks to our direct-die approach and efficient cooling system. As heat increases, so does electrical resistance, leading to what's known as parasitic currents. One of Intel's biggest missteps with this generation was releasing a power-hungry CPU with a heat spreader, combined with motherboards that don't limit voltage adequately. This leads to high temperatures and, ultimately, degradation. So, yes, for most users who aren’t using direct-die cooling (which is the vast majority), degradation can happen due to these thermal limitations-especially depending on overclocking levels, usage, and cooling setups. We understand that direct-die cooling is only for enthusiasts because of the effort involved and the fact that it voids your warranty. Ironically, though, it can actually save your CPU from Intel’s design flaws if you're looking to squeeze maximum performance out of your chip. Hope you found this helpful, and thanks again for your comments!

    I enjoyed watching your video on the GLACIUS PC build and its impressive performance. However, I noticed that the BIOS version used for your test dates back to September 2023. Given the known microcode bug affecting 13th and 14th gen Intel i7 and i9 CPUs, I’m curious why you didn’t update to the latest BIOS version available at the time of your test on June 17, 2024. The latest version, ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING WIFI II BIOS 1301, released on May 30, 2024, includes several important updates: 1- Introduces “Performance Preferences” with options for Intel Default Settings (Performance/Extreme) and ASUS Advanced OC Profile. 2- Redefines factory defaults based on Intel’s new “Intel Default Settings” for various CPU SKUs. 3- Changes F5 from “Load Optimized Defaults” to “Reset to Defaults”. 4- Adds warnings when users switch from the defaults to other settings. Updating to this version could potentially enhance the stability and performance of your build. Could you share any specific reasons for not using the latest BIOS? Thanks!

      Hello! Thank you for watching the video and for your insightful comment! We’re aware of the initial BIOS settings that may result in higher voltages, especially in overclocking scenarios like this. We intentionally used the original BIOS to demonstrate that even in this non-optimized state, the system remains completely stable, with low temperatures despite voltage variations and high power consumption. In our latest video, we push the CPU to 6.0 GHz on all performance cores, handling an impressive 420W of heat, with temperatures well below the limit. Our goal was to showcase the cooling potential of our setup. We plan to update the microcode soon and create a similar video to compare results with improved overclocking optimization. It’s worth noting that during stress testing, despite heavy loads, our cooling method has prevented any instability, unlike other systems where temperatures exceeded 100°C, leading to degradation. This highlights just how crucial effective cooling is for overclocking. Thanks again for engaging with our content-your feedback motivates us to keep producing videos and building brand awareness!

      Seriously... why would you use a microcode that its only purpose is to nerf performance when you want to overclock your CPU?

      @@valentinosgsxr The updated microcode isn’t just about performance; it also addresses stability and security issues. Overclocking can still be optimized with the right settings.

    So I want to try it because of price but am very scared to destroy some extremely expensive parts... I havent seen any long term reviews and not one mention of your company anywhere but this video....

      They are actually a really good company that somewhat recently started building pc cooling parts. I've used all but their fittings and really like them. I really like their rads. I'm a big fan of the drain ports on the opposite end of the inlets.
