I actually quite like the idea of a laptop that I can plug into a water cooler that I keep at my desk for some extra performance. I don't really game on the go, so it makes perfect sense. However, I will probably wait for a second iteration
I wonder who’s gonna make that idea first into the market.

Not even performance, just to keep the fans quieter, mine is powerful but sounds like a jet ffs.
Maybe you could implement this design into a laptop stand? All you would do is have a thermally conductive contact on the back of your laptop that you set down, and the cooling block is spring-loaded on the stand to make full contact with the laptop. I am actually pretty interested in this idea, considering that I'm someone who uses my laptop as a PC at home.
They make cheap "reusable" thermal pads also which would be the perfect use for them. Even if you used 1 every time you had to set it up it would be fairly cheap and not so messy. Idk why I'm even looking at watercooling a laptop because the temps on mine are already pretty good.
I also watercooling laptops... already made few different ones...I must say, the silence during night is golden and temps are below 60 on cpu and gpu :)
This is really cool. It reminds me of what would be needed to do when getting an m.2 nvme external GPU connector to install in an HP Ryzen 3 laptop that doesn't have a thunderbolt port. Great video, thanks!
8:09 I think it's because laptop cpu and gpu have lock power. I mean, they can up power after drop temperature, but system can't do this.
Please keep making these videos
You’re amazing
Thank you
you nailed it!
Looks pretty cool, good job.
So I've been thinking about this concept ever since the latest ltt video came out about it, the main issue was that water was left behind in the whole thing so I was thinking what if you keep all of the water-cooling external, but in a way that you can quickly "plug" the laptop into a laptop stand or something. Only issue is that there isn't really a way to connect the waterblock and the heatsink together without using thermal paste and that isn't really all that fast.
Actually doing something similar like this right now. Cut up the bottom plate of the laptop so it'll have a hatch that you could open and close. The laptop stand has an AIO cooler where the pump is suspended facing upwards so the copper is exposed, maybe using bungee cords or rubber bands. Open laptop hatch, place laptop on the stand, and the connection is made where the tension from the rubber bands will push the pump up against the laptop heatsinks. There's enough space to put 2 pumps side by side. If using a 360mm AIO in a push-pull, you can have 12 fans cooling the sucker. Make it into an enclosure so it will be more of a "docking tower." Will have to use thermal pads so there's no "sticky" connection and will conform to all the uneven surfaces. If not using it, just take the laptop off, close the hatch and it's back to a regular laptop.
@@UrdnotAkongo Awesome! And how's the performance on that compared to regular?
@@UrdnotAkongo Hey man, that sounds amazing! I wanted to build something similar, so could I have the details of how exactly you did it?
@@UrdnotAkongo you mean like this? ruclips.net/video/A4HtrqVWH-k/видео.html
awesome vid bro keep dishin out similar content ❤️
looks like the laptop got power throttled, which explains why you don't see much difference in the performance.
if you hack the bios to unlock the power limit it might give you much higher performance because it has lots of thermal headroom to work with after you water cooled the laptop.
try a peristaltic pump, often found in aircon condensers. much less noise.
This was quite a clever idea man. Perhaps no performance increases in a drastic way, but stability over time seems to go up. Kudos!
Props to you man! Honestly, if it was a little quieter, having a "docking station" for water cooled mode vs. on-the-go mode just using air, I think you nailed it!
That’s so cool!
Hey man, excellent work. I've been wanting to do that for a long time. Have you thought of adding peltier cooling to the system. And possibly make it smaller? As small as those thermoelectric cooling devices that latch behind phones.
Honestly thought about doing this after seeing the mech 15 haha I wonder if it would be more efficient with a bigger heat sink to cover more of the laptops heat pipes🤔
Interesting video. I've been thinking to modify my Lenovo Y740 in the near future and I'm not sure yet that how it will turnout. I've the BIOS version that allows you to overclock the device and I was thinking if I should turn it as a desktop pc (few cool projects on the internet) and add watercooling on it. Your approach was interesting to watch, I would have the portability of the PC with this sort of solution. And yes, "you should not do this" :D I might.
Thanks for the video!
this is worth subscribing to tbh.
Ur videos are actually pretty interesting to watch
Thanks!
Very good project, changing the block for copper 82% + Thermal conductivity and larger size, wouldn't the final result be improved?
Careful with using mixed metal loops (alu + copper), you'll get a lot of corrosion over time unless you use additives. Love the videos :)
Yep. This was all aluminum, but yeah good point
I had the same idea but decided against because of the relative high complexity and the low performance boost
Yeah. I did it knowing that it would be complex for a low boost: I just wanted to try to see for myself.
I think that for a higher performing thin gaming laptop the boost would have been bigger: something that is more thermally constrained.
I have an old HP laptop Dv7 and the problem with CPU in the DV 6 and 7 series is they always run 100% even on small load so you hit 80-90 c. Fast and it start to bottleneck and I think a set up like that could help it along fast.
longer copper tubes and a 220 mm rad works for me -18 f
Quiero saber las partes que utilizaste para el modding, Gracias.
Liked and subscribed! Would like to see a follow up video too!!
what about those new small phone coolers, i think you can slap one of those right on top of the cpu/gpu
Maybe, depends on how over designed the phone cooler is. A phone needs to dissipate less than 5 watts of heat, while a gaming laptop has over 100 watts to dissipate when running full-bore.
Might be something I could test tho, given that they are so cheap
maybe 80 x 40 water might do it better with peltier cooling
can you use peltier phone cooler and put it exactly on top of the CPU and GPU?
Hi ! This was Cinebench R23 score ?
What's not accounted here are other factors that may affect temperature of the system, mainly the ambient temperature. I think if the ambient temperature is hot, this setup would be very useful for cooling the laptop.
Interesting point that I didn’t think much about
What about placing the waterblock on top of the actual cpu😃
Imma try this, my acer helios 300 screams loudly during gameplay, i hope this will lower temps so it calms tf down
Good luck! Just know that this is a one-way project that will impact resale value
I am interested
I'm curious about the consequences if the part going to the computer is cooled extra using peltier :))
i do before with a similar DIY water cooler and doesn't works nothing good, results = waste of money the pump is not enough fast and the tubes is to small
but is fun to test
make mfing part two my man , this was bad ass and def think u can improve
I like
Stl for the box?
Umm I know I'm at least 8 month late, but have you thought about overclock?
Cool project! (Did you see what I did there lol?)
time to get a 360mm radiator for my laptops cpu so i can stay locked at 5ghz instead of 4.2ghz lmao
Definitely have to do this now. Swapped my gpus 80w vbios to a 115w vbios and the gpus hotter temps are definitely not helping the 10th gen cpu lmao.
Yeah the 10th generation Intel processors in laptops get always super hot xD
@@rafaelconstanzovicens9094 Yeah but i finally got it to stay at 4.2 without going over 70 so thats a win
still gonna water cool it when i have the time
Plz improve this desing , 3d print the back of the laptop whit a hole over the gpu so you dont have to cut it, And place all the parts in a laptop cooling pad so it can be lift and place in place easly
Make a second version plssssss
I kinda destroyed the laptop to make my most recent project
Surely you can't seriously expect any huge gains on mediocre hardware like this, as you said you don't want to risk it with a more expensive laptop but the thing is that's where you'll actually see most benefits with higher end hardware
but you can save cpu =) from getting destroyes XD
For Al.
nope need 140 mm x 120 or 140 mm waterblock and 240 radiator
thats the set not this super tinyyyyiest radiator and watre block to cool a bit the vram gpu and cpu .laptop is fcking thermal trotling so atleast get a bigger set up if u REALLY want to cool off ur laptop
krave bot?
wtf 🤬 my pavilion runs at 90c with csgo
Suitable title: How to lose $1500 in 1hour
This build cost $650 total and the video has made over $1,000 in revenue.
I mean that I broke my $1200 Asus strix g15
hp pavilions are the worst contender to be diy'ed, first because they have the worst bios, second their gpu larger than GTX 1650 is always power limited, third their cooling is already good enough bc of the power limit
I agree with this take.
