If you opened up one of the modules it would look like this... bunch of ECL chips with copper heatsinks conducting heat to the outer alloy casing where the water cooling manifolds would be bolted on. And all that internal cavity with chips and heatsinks was filled with a... sticky goopy fluid to aid in heat conduction. Power consumption... enormous!! http://wp.xin.at/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/mcm.jpg Mike http://www.corestore.org 'No greater love hath a man than he lay down his life for his brother.
