Heatpipes are excellent conductors of heat as they transfer heat by phase change of liquid which absorbs large amounts of heat in the process.
If the heatpipe heatsink is actively absorbing heat from an external source, it can efficiently transfer that heat to the surrounding environment.
To proof that, let’s see what happens if we place ice on the heatpipe heatsink. The rapid heat transfer will cause the ice in contact with the heatsink to melt much faster compared to a regular metal heatsink.
Functioning as an exceptional heat conductor, the heatpipe plays a pivotal role in maintaining optimal operating temperatures during intense gaming sessions, especially in MSI Raider GE78 HX and MSI Raider GE68 HX with OverBoost Ultra Technology that boost CPU and GPU power up to 250W in total.
There is another subtle design about MSI Raider GE 78/68 HX heatpipe heatsink. The Shared-Heatpipe design let both side of the fan share the heat from CPU and GPU, as shown in the experiment, the separate heatpipe design will not transfer heat to the opposite site.
The MSI Raider GE78/68 HX indeed are high performance laptop with excellent thermal solution which you can enjoy 4K gaming with no worry. The optimized thermal management ensures that the gaming laptop remains cool, preventing throttling and performance drop.
