ID-Cooling Offers Vapor Chamber CPU Cooler for Mini-ITX Systems
ID-COOLING, a cooling solution provider focusing on thermal dissipation and fan technology research and production for over 10 years, releases a newly developed Vapor Chamber CPU Cooler for Mini-ITX system: IS-VC45.
When small PC systems get more and more power hungry and house much more top-tier hardware including the CPU, effective CPU cooling is in demand. With a vapor chamber base to draw heat immediately from the processor, IS-VC45 is able to handle TDP 130W CPUs. Measuring 94×92×45mm, this cooler can fit into Mini-ITX systems easily.
High density aluminum fins are soldered to the vapor chamber base to help disperse the heat. Equipped with a slim 92mm FDB(Fluid Dynamic Bearing) fan, IS-VC45 can dissipate heat efficiently while keeping at a decent quite operation. The speed is regulated between 600 to 2500RPM with PWM function.
Using metal screws and back plate installation, this cooler will stay safely on your motherboard. Intel Socket LGA1150/1155/1156 and Socket LGA2011 are supported.
MSRP for IS-VC45 is $44.99.

This cooler is specifically for CPU's, so there's no reason to even mention GPU's in this thread. They would have to completely re-engineer this to fit a GPU. Removing the fan, would greatly reduce it's effectiveness. Vapor chamber coolers have to have a fan to dissipate heat effectively.
Read the other half of the second sentence. If they improve it, and get rid of that fan. That's pretty much what they haven't done so far, improve it and got rid of the fan, because I'm well aware that there have been vapor chambers on gpus, like the Titan for instance.

Yeah, okay, I won't talk about it anymore.

Just a warning, aluminium can't be soldered so those fins are made of zinc, I know this for sure as arctic cooling used the same technique on their coolers (the vga silencer series with coper base). And zinc has less thermal conductance.

Sure you can. Now whether or not it is economical or useful for mass production in this particular application are separate issues.
