Crazed modder straps 360mm AIO radiator to laptop, cuts temps to below 40 degrees
What happened
Crazed modder straps 360mm AIO radiator to laptop, cuts temps to below 40 degrees, according to Tom's Hardware. PC modder TrashBench attached a 360mm radiator and custom cooling to a laptop and gained up to 14% in performance at the cost of the definition of a laptop. YouTube hardcore PC modder TrashBench attached waterblocks, a water pump, and a 360mm radiator to a Metabox laptop with an Nvidia GTX 1060 and Intel Core i7-8750H.
This Frankenstein’s monster of a laptop dropped a whole 60℃ on both the CPU (the general-purpose processor at the centre of a computer) and GPU (a chip built for many calculations at once, used for graphics and AI) during benchmarks and stress tests and gained an average of 14% after overclocking. TrashBench, a YouTuber popular for extreme PC modifications involving various watercooling solutions, decided to “fix” laptop cooling by taking a cut-up 360mm AIO from another project and plans to use it on the Metabox P950EP.
Metabox is an Australian brand of laptops rebranded from Clevo, an ODM brand from Taiwan that often gets rebranded in various countries. TrashBench intends to use this laptop for his daughter to play Fortnite on.
