"I decided to use heat pipes, but instead of ordering some and figuring out how to attach them to the CPU die, I decided to repurpose an older cooler master CPU cooler I had around ( also a donation from a friend ) It was for an older intel CPU, so I had to create a mount for it for my AM4 platform. I drilled holes for half of the pipes and stuck them inside the radiator, the other ones I bent and pressed against the face of the other radiator. At this point I am using two of them. Bending the heatpipes without a proper tool is a mess. I ended up using the neck of a bottle of wine.....To my surprise it was working!!! I managed to get to max 80C under stress."
