Laptop Water Cooling Mod Help
Hi, Id like to water cool my Toshiba S855D-S5120 laptop to get the most out of its performance. I don't want to mod the stock parts(just in case) but i cant find a replacement heat sink. I don't really know where start so any help is appreciated. And don't try to convince me that i need a cooling pad or stuff like that I already have some of those gadgets and the do help but i want to do the extreme.

Thanks for any help

When I was building my custom loop for my PC I never saw any kit made for laptops. It would have to be tiny and not be able to remove enough heat.

Water cooling for a laptop? I don't think that exists. Even if it did, it wouldn't work very well at all.

To have any use off watercooling you need a sizable radiator otherwise you would just be pumping very hot water around that can not get rid of its heat.

Water cooling requires four parts. A pump, radiator, tubing and water cooling block. Your laptop would no longer be a laptop.

he might mean heatpipes, which are not watercooling

or he could do the fishtank mod, if it has a ssd and no odd

would envolve dunking the entire lapotp in mineral oil

Afaik, there are no watercooling parts/loops you can buy for laptops. The only watercooled laptop I've ever seen was a crazy casemod at Gamescom '13.

A laptop doesn't quite have the necessary space for tubing, rad, pump, block etc.

You can build a custom loop/construction. But you wont be able to unhook it just like that. No matter what cooler you have, it'll always need to have one part sitting directly on the CPU/HS + thermal paste.

I hope you suceed with that, because I've always wanted to do the same thing.

BTW... There is one watercooling pad on newegg for laptops without modding.

This is beyond my technical knowledge.

Thanks i hope it will work to.....
Pomelo Jun 23, 2014 @ 12:22pm 
guess I was wrong. Still, you'll need knowledge about cooling and the skills to mod your laptop like that.

Looks like that system lowered his temps by 10* C. Going from 75 to 65 is probably not worth it.

Im going to try to find a local computer expert to help me do it or do it for me

You may need a plumber as well!! :cybereye:

Good luck. Seems like a fun project. I hope you have an old laptop to practice on!
