Do you think it will be possible (and if so how easily) to have the 16 be water cooled?

What is your reason for wanting to try?
Because it does not seem you’re able to get better performance just through better cooling

Custom heat sinks, and dimensional drawings

From the testing I’ve done on my i5-1240p framework mainboard, no amount of fiddling with settings in ThrottleStop seems to force the CPU to run at a higher power than is it set to - 60W for 10 seconds then 28W, which seems insane to me since a CPU should only start to throttle once it gets too hot, not after an arbitrary amount of time. My CPU throttles even when it gets nowhere near the PROCHOT threshold, while the CPU on my ThinkPad T430, an i7-3630QM, would slowly reduce the clock speed as i…

We could hope that Framework is able to change things in the Framework-16, but it seems that it’s intel and AMD’s fault.
