and definitely not for people who can't stop fiddling with buttons

Welp, guess I'm out :(

Qualcomm has announced plans to develop custom data center CPUs that use Nvidia technology to connect to Nvidia’s AI chips. This marks the company’s return to the data center CPU market, where it was previously active but scaled back its operations due to cost constraints and legal challenges.

If Cooler Master's able to get their yields above 50% and the thermal reduction in CPU cooling is realized in their final product, this could introduce quite a revolution in CPU cooling for consumer/gamer PCs.

btw side note: QMax/Qmax is the maximum quantity of heat that can be absorbed at the conductive surface of the cooler while the cooler operates at its optimal rated efficiency.

So according to their white paper, we could potentially see a 50W increase from their prior cooler designs which would be quite significant if realized.
