Ive built several liquid cooled computers in the past.
I was also thinking about building a light.
Then it occurred to me, if I'm gonna be attaching them to heat sinks anyway, why not liquid cool those heat sinks?
You could drive the 3590 harder, also cut down on heat. I want to drive the 3590 harder than I see plans for, I don't care if I shorten the life cycle. By the time they are dead something new and better will be out. But liquid cooling would allow you to drive it harder with no significant temp increase (I think?)
Any of the more advanced lighting guys see an inherent problem with this before I continue thinking about it? It would be very easy to do. A simple radiator, res, connections, and transfer plates.
