Alienware Liquid cooled laptop by Asetek

[Mr. Fox]

So, let's mantain the hope... (i'm a devoted junkie of new initiatives and developments )

That's true MR. Fox, but ho know!

The press release from Asetek is dated Tuesday, March 20th 2012. It would make no sense for them to provide a press release on a closed or cancelled project.

News - Asetek, Inc.

That's why I think the comment between friends was misinformation.

strange, the asetek guy from youtube responded to me with this

"Currently it's a prototype. It would be up to manufacturers to utilize Asetek liquid cooling in their notebooks."

That sounds like a very credible statement.

I'm particularly glad and enthusiastic that they choose an AW machine to show the prototyping...

You are very enthusiastic indeed , Brother SOS4Dell, but I wonder, how come you don't own AW products (or maybe you just don't put it in your sig? )? I remember, you mentioned that you gave it a shot but due to some QC issues you abandoned your beast. Are you going to give Dellienware another chance or going with a different vendor?

Hi Aiki! Thank you for your kind interest. Of course AW is my predilect but... I had to return my machine long time ago. Then I had to have some surgeries... and other related expenses... Well, as soon as my economy comes healthy again, certainly I will embrasse again an alien... After all, aren't we all 'aliens' in this universe?

Health comes first, M8! Then the economy. Don't worry, Aliens can wait

They should get noctua to make some fans for laptops

Wow, here's yet another thread on the same topic... LOL.

Battery life shouldn't be affected too much by the pump.

Did anyone else notice the coolant reservoir/pump assembly appears to be located in the M18x battery bay? Assuming the schematic in the video is accurate, the battery will need to be smaller (fewer cells) to make room for it.

[katalin_2003]

That is actually true, Mr.Fox, i just got confirmation from my Asetek contact that the number of cells needs to be reduced in order to fit the pump.

So it's less battery life in exchange for 'cooling performance'.

How often do you run a m18x without being plugged in though?
