Is water-cooled laptops possible? (and other cooling techniques)

(1/8) > >>

CRxTRDUDE:
It just occurred to me... I saw this CPU in a mall from where I'm situated. It's watercooled on the CPU and 2 GPUS (Which I guess that were over-clocked). It's kinda nice 'cuz I experienced destroying my comp many times due to overheating. And water can be a nice heat disperser for heat emitted by these processors...

Now the question to you techie guys out there... Can water-cooling for laptops be possible? (it might be nice...)

If it does, on what extent? Just curious...

EDIT: I changed the name of this thread 'cuz it's more relative to the content of this thread  ;) ;D

AceHigh:
If it's a completely closed system, then yes, but laptops are advertised as light weight and water cooling would ruin that part.

CRxTRDUDE:
Well, would it work that laptops, if you know how to open them and what to cool... then It would work right?

AceHigh:
Technically yes, you have several challenges:

Finding a cpu water block and a way to fasten it
Finding tubes and pumps that would fit

CRxTRDUDE:
^Well that would be cool. How bout modifying the laptop to provide a casing for the cooler...
