I really hope your build is going well. Keep checking back to see if you have made an update to see how you knock it out of the park. If not for you I wouldn't have though to use a hotplate to finish modding my GP66 to be bicooled, I can't thank you enough. Can't wait to see how your build ends up!
This is so cool! So much effort to make this possible! I really enjoyed to see that everything ran smooth. Can't wait to see the next update 😉 P.s. I'm jealous 😋
12:23 You could use a thermal bridge or a small radiator on the inductance, remove heat from it. Usually these inductances conduct heat well, because they have a large density and a large soldering area to the board. Also, if the choke heats up a lot, you can choose a choke of a slightly larger size, it will have a higher saturation current and heat up less. The last I personally checked by replacing such chokes with larger one.
Excellent DIY👍Indeed custom water pipe copying layout of the heatpipes and major heat dissipating components should deliver even better results. Hopefully GCX will come up with something like that in the future.
Nice project man, you can add on top of that cooling mod a custom made cooling pad. I've buy 2x 140mm Artic p14 pwm co, 1 12v fan controller with knobs, a cheap 12v power brick. Than i have add some soft rubber strip on top of the fan case (to make a good seal against underneat panel), i also have do a cheap support to all that and i have 7 to 10°C lower temp with 1000/1200rpm less, basically from 15 to 20°C with fixed laptop fan speed. With that i can cool all the component that are overclocked (now cpu, ram, chipset, forced max dynamic boost, custom unvervolt progressive curve for gpu, n°5 in the world with cpu profile for 11800h with an 1050€ laptop and numer 62 in timespy for 11800h and 95w 3060mobile). Obviously to have a good result you need to cover all the air intakes with the fan area, but using Artic p14 pwm c0 i have the same noise as the noctua with less noise from laptop fan, much more cooling for all the components and i have spend oly 50€. Try it, you can have some serious improvement. Also, if you're not using liquid metal, use Honeywell ptm 7950 sheet version, the best themal interface after liquid metal but without the risk of shotrcircuit.
Actually no. For my daily system I don't use the watercooling mod. But I totally should since the fans are too loud for my taste. Temperatures however are fine, even on air. This laptop model trades it with loud fans though
Yes it is, absolutely true. But hey, at least I discovered by accident that removing the back cover benefits temperatures greatly. Planning on a video about that in combo with my 3D printed laptop stand. Tremendously improved temps and fan noise.
Great job! I have same project. In the video was very interesting how you soldering the heat pipe on the top. Waiting for the next part video. Thank you! Keep going M8!
Aliexpress sells pre-bent water pipe with knurled insert nuts soldered at the ends. They are really soft and really easy to bend.I end up routing with my own pipe since the ones they sell aren’t long enough. I used some thin refrigerant pipe and hammered it flat to around 2.5mm so it fits without modification. I got almost 30C drop to under 60C on the GPU with a passive cooled water loop. I have a post on Reddit but I couldn’t post link here rip
Wow i missed this new series and i'm catching up only now, again, really cool project. Sometimes the modding process satisfies more than using the product itself ang getting useful results even more! For the custom part are you going to use round pipes? you can follow the hestsink shapes and heights with a round pipe and after that you can crush it to obtain a more oval shape for better surface area and easy soldering...like a heatpipe😂
Wow, finally someone did it. I'm also interested in doing something like this with my new laptop but I don't wanna solder anything, what do you think about using thermal pads instead?
That's an impressive and risky job you did there! Since you know XMG, do you think their 4,100€ neo 17 rtx 4090 will go on sale any soon? Or should I buy it at this price?
💪🏻 keep going, good results as always, i have the 3000 ryzen version of that laptop and i daily drive it without the bottom cover, i was wondering if you can make available the stl file for the stand that you jave 3d printed so i can use a more elegant solution 😅 thanks
Yep I will share it on my website soon :) But keep in mind that it is made for use without the whole bottom case, not just without the bottom lid/cover. I could make another updated version with shortened pillars for usage without bottom lid/cover only. You will need longer M2.5 screws though. Also beware that under the middle screw hole is the PCB. If you screw in a screw which is too long you can damage the mainboard. Give me some days to update my website and you will find the STL there.
@albertwesker4266 i have a lenevo legion y740. And I believe the insides are quite similar. Could you tell me how you've done it? And what are the benchmarks?
@@aymantashfique3194 How ?? By adding copper waterblock onto laptop heatpipes ( soldering required ) and making external watercooling system. The temps under gaming are around 47-50 degrees celsius on cpu and gpu. Laptop is dead silent, and external water cooling system also dead silent - noctua fans used :)
@@TechModLab yep, still running like a charm, I have removed tdp limits on cpu ( now jumps to 100W i7 10870h ) and loaded vga bios to unlock 115w tgp on gpu. Still dead silent and cool :)
Great series. Do you think you can improve cooling even more by maybe adding additional heat pipes to the fan or does the Fan not have enough space for that?
No space left, no. But I don't think the heatpipes are the problem. I think it's the fan stack's surface area. If that would be bigger the laptop would be cooler. Plus the fans need more room on the intake side.
pretty cool project though personally id love to have a mod that can easily be removed so base laptop can still be used as is my plan for an aio setup is to just mount the cold plate on top of the copper heatsinks and add thermal paste to it instead of thermal pads but it will get a bit messier
The base laptop can be used as is. The heatsink with the waterpipe on top still works as it used to. The laptop can still sit flat on table just as before. You only need to drain the waterpipe before every transport.
@@TechModLab pretty cool that its removable just a bit bulkier i guess a way to mount an aftermarket aio would be a cool mod too i have something similar on mine but its nowhere near as engineered as yours mines literally hanging by a velcro strap hahaha
Great experiment! I have a question regarding solder paste.13:15 What quality are you using for this mod? I need a good quality one to add some heat pipes to my Notebook's cooling system.
Thank you. Actually it's Adafruit's Low Temperature Maker Paste in this video. But all low temperature solder pastes with Bismuth in it will work just as good. The Adafruit one was just easier available at the time.
@@TechModLab Understood! I actually didn't take into account the fact that it is important to use a paste that has the lowest possible melting point, to avoid compromising the other saltings on the original structure of the dissipating solution. Regarding XMG Noebooks, do you have any news on Ryzen 7000 Desktop support? I can't wait for your next video to come out!
Valiant effort, love it. But what really grinds my gears is how laptops are even designed to overheat so much. Every laptop I've owned since 2015 had major overheating problems, I've had 2 razers, a lenovo and now I got a ASUS ROG Zephirus. Still the same nonsense design. I've been using a fan stand on all of em and they can't handle webbrowser + a game open at the same time without risking overheating. TBF I tend to have 50 tabs open but still. I just hate having my laptop overheat and crash so frequently, it only gets worse over time, even factory resetting only works for a month or so before problems come back again.
@@TechModLab I'ma look into those. Thx. I have used those sticky thermal pads on anything I can access in my laptops. They do help. Still ridiculous how laptops manufactures don't seem to address this at all. They put all the specs on their computer as if assuming the whole thing will be submerged in mineral oil and can't overheat. None of these specs are ever accurate.
@TechModLab i have 6 slots also i solved the overheating problem with gelid heatphase sheet but now my battery started to drain while gaming so i kinda gave up on the laptop

I just run my laptop with the case open, with an extra fan.
Definitely interested in this project tho,
Would be nice to get something like this going.
This is so cool! So much effort to make this possible! I really enjoyed to see that everything ran smooth. Can't wait to see the next update 😉 P.s. I'm jealous 😋

Great to see this update, have been watching your series on this laptop with interest
I have been waiting for this for months. At last!
I like how you do this just because you can!
I imagine there was a lot of overheating frustration which prompted this measure.
Yes that's pretty much the spirit behind it hehe
Actually no. For my daily system I don't use the watercooling mod. But I totally should since the fans are too loud for my taste. Temperatures however are fine, even on air. This laptop model trades it with loud fans though

Finally
I loved the video❤❤
Hi, thanks for the video where did you get the water pipe?
Bought a new heatsink from xmg
This doesn’t void warranty does it?
Still waiting for PART 3!!!!
Me too!
Why can’t / where can we get this in USA? Didn’t see on Amazon, and their websites not useful either.
Just has kits for their laptops. Nothing DIY like this. ):
Can AIO install possible??
