    I still wonder about the feasibility of integrating a vapor chamber in that thick IHS!

      A cool idea but AMD would rather break compatibility than pay for something like that.

        Aye certainly. Was thinking more about 3rd party solutions however, might be something der8auer or the likes could build!

        Perhaps the localized heat flux is just too great though.

      Gamers Nexus had a tour of AMD. They actually developed and validated a vapor chamber IHS, but said it wouldn’t be worth the cost. Their whole cooling lab tour was super interesting.
