I am pretty sure that Intel could cool the chip, even at that speed.
A factory-fitted silver heatsink, with high-speed water-cooling to
a heat exchanger in front of a large and fast fan, bolted into a
heavy chassis, should do the job.

A heat pipe is better at moving heat than any solid material, and quite
easy to use.

Hang on - I never said that the silver heatsink was solid! It should
be silver for the conductivity and resistance to corrosion, but I was
assuming circulating water inside it. Sorry about omitting that
critical point :-(

Dumping all those watts in the environment, absent water cooling, is more
of a problem. I'd rather not have several hundred watts heating the air in
my office, thank you.

Or 1,000 of them dumping heat in my machine room ....
