The M5 MacBook Pro, despite having a single-fan cooling system similar to the M4, manages to run cooler under load, reaching 99°C compared to the M4's over 100°C, likely due to thermal tweaks or better thermal paste, though its cooling solution remains less effective than dual-fan setups in higher-end models.

The latest M4 Mac mini features a compact design with significant internal changes, including a new cooling solution with a spiraling heatsink and a single heatpipe. The device also offers user-swappable storage, though in an uncommon form factor, and improved performance in tasks like 4K video export and gaming. The M4 Mac mini is available at a discounted price on Amazon, starting at $549.99 for the base model with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage.

NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition GPU will feature a more compact dual-slot, dual-fan cooling solution compared to the RTX 4090. The new design includes a brand-new PCB layout and is expected to handle over 400W of heat. The RTX 5090 will utilize the Blackwell GPU architecture, support GDDR7 memory, and is anticipated to launch in Q4 2024.

YouTuber MaxTech discovered that the M3 MacBook Air's performance issues can be significantly improved with modifications, such as using a DHCR cooling dock from SVALT and thermal pads, resulting in nearly 50% performance increase and outperforming the M3 MacBook Pro. The cooling dock almost doubled the MacBook Air's performance in certain benchmarks, and with the addition of thermal pads, the MacBook Air achieved performance comparable to the MacBook Pro. This highlights the significant difference in cooling solutions between the two laptops, and while these modifications can address the MacBook Air's performance issues, the cost of the cooling dock may be a deterrent for some users.

New pictures of NVIDIA's alleged GeForce RTX 4090 Ti or Titan Ada graphics card have been leaked, showing a prototype variant that takes up at least quad-slots worth of space and requires a single 16-pin connector to boot. The PCB seems to be missing from this particular variant since the display outputs are empty. The RTX 4090 Ti is said to be offered with the PG136/139 PCB, featuring an AD102 GPU with 18,176 cores, 96 MB of L2 cache, and 24 GB of GDDR6X memory. The cooling solution is unique in design, with the PCB going on the side rather than below the heatsink itself, which means it will be placed vertically.

ASUS has launched its flagship variant, the GeForce RTX 4060 ROG STRIX graphics card, featuring a 3-slot design and a massive dual-heatsink assembly interconnected by several heat pipes. The card also adopts a triple-fan layout and is powered by a single 8-pin connector. The ROG STRIX cooler is expected to run cool and quiet, but it comes at a premium price of around $100 US more than the reference pricing of $299 US. However, a dual-slot and dual-fan variant should do the job just as well.

Der8auer has designed a new AMD Ryzen 7000 Direct-Die Water-Block that rests directly on the die, offering optimal thermal performance results compared to all-in-one (AIO) liquid coolers. The new cooling solution requires users to remove the AMD Ryzen IHS to achieve optimal contact with the processor and allow for the best thermal control. The Mycro Direct Die cooling block offers much better cooling versus other solutions on the AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs, with a 28-degree reduction compared to the stock liquid cooling solution. The cooling solution is expected to sell for €100.
