Watercooling newsgroup ?

How about accoustic cooling? This method likey has more promise for CPU
cooling than what we have loosely been calling 'water cooling' when what we
are really doing is using a fluid (water) to transport heat by forced
convection from a CPU to a radiator and fan. A suitable heatpipe and
convective air heat transport is much simpler that using a water loop -
unfortunately these heat pipes are less common and not easy (or safe) to
tinker with.

Or direct fluid impingment on the silicon die?

Or fluid channels and pumps etched into the silicon die?

Or semiconductors with a better performance than doped tellurium/bismuth?

Exactly, watercooling has passed the fad phase and is maturing, finding
new
uses and becoming available to a bigger public....

best thing to do is start it up and see how it goes.

Refrigeration cooling has been around for quite a while but,
nevertheless, I'm not sure he intended the group's focus to be
'latest fad' cooling anyway.

Exactly, watercooling ahve passed the fad phase and is maturing, finding

uses and becoming available to a bigger public. Afordable, easy to use,
watercooling solutions are now becoming available to the greater mass for
a
faster or a quieter computer.
I've gotten some nice reponses in private emails as well as promises of
supporta dn promotion of the newsgroup IF created. But as Phil pointed out
there's the question of how viable a new separate newsgroup is volumevise.
I
haven't seen much open support (ok, not resistance either) from the
newsgroups it relates to yet so I'm holding my desission for now as to
wether I should go through with the ng creation.

So, to you who read this and frequent these newsgroups, would YOU read and
post to a dedicated watercooling newsgroup, would you be against a split
for
any reason?

I kinda agree with the people in alt.config about that, why start it up if
it will be empty. Why cause a split and then have the group die (not that I
think it will). Before I go forth and actually create it I want to hear more
from the people that will (hopefully) actually use it...

hi

i can use it, but a empty ng is pointless....
we(you) need a ng + a working forum somewhere....

Now that is a comment on point - a moderated newsgroup would be useful, and
likely grow, if only because noise is reduced. But then who decides what is
signal and what qualifies as noise?

Eh? What does these have to do with the proposed newsgroup? What are you
trying to say?

Would you mind If I became furniture in said group seriously
though, I would absolutely support it with all I have. I have been
H2O'ing for just over 4 years now. I am extremely glad to see it (the
hobby of water-cooling a computer) to evolve and mature into the
entity it is today and I work hard at educating people towards it's
potential.
