Working on the 3d print designs to hold the water block, radiator/fan, and a little alignment connector and cover for the hole in the laptop enclosure at the GPU. I already did grizzly extreme thermal grease, and modified the enclosure in several places to allow better fan airflow. The water block will hopefully stop
the throttling with CNNs and keep the GPU from going offline when under sudden loads like loading a new model.

I had the water block from an old comp I was given, so why not try to use it. This is a 16 GB 3080Ti, so it gets pretty hot with a CNN. I won't even use Flux models because they run so hot.
