Server blades are a far cry from home PC's; they aren't even remotely similar. Air and liquid setups are VASTLY different between home consumer and blade servers.

For starters, air cooled blade servers have tiny wimpy heat sinks with 2 inch fans that scream at full power around the clock regardless of load.

The air setups we are comparing in home PC's aren't even on the same planet from the cheap'es they put in blade servers. If you spec'd out the a good air cooler for your cpu, it should keep a fully loaded cpu well below damaging levels running at 70% rpm.

 

Also, the liquid heat exchangers and the bases for air heatsinks are similar in size. They both are larger than the cpu contact footprint. They have very similar "spread" and cool plenty even enough. Copper and aluminum are very heat conductive; there's no issue with "cooling evenly" bs.

I dont work on blade servers... What I work on are a bit more complex and expensive... Mostly I work with Z series and Ds8800

<50C   Excellent

50-60C Getting pretty warm

60-80C Look into getting a better cooler... you prolly get the occational blue screen

80-90C The danger zone! cuwnadlm7axhqr7kg5oe.jpg

>90C Complete failure

with  phase change cooling  you have to do a lot of insulation to protect from condensation happening  plus take a hit on hydro bill and noise

By now I would think someone would have invented processors that can run at very high heats with minimal or no cooling required and materials that will absorb heat but not burn you when you touch it. Such things are around for other purposes but very expensive and fragile. They are also old technology.

 

You can build a minneral oiled filled computer and solve you cooling problems. Tons of videos here's just one.

Next big upgrade, whenever that is, I might revisit this idea. So long as I am comfortable that I will not suffer a catastrophe if it breaks and sprays liquid everywhere,

I always test my loops for 72 hours with paper towels everywhere to detect a leak

a note  with  hose clamps  if not 100% sealed (poor hose clamping) @ pump inlet will be a vacume leak causing loss of fluid through evaporation
