Re: watercooling lost its magic
I think the fringe is bigger. You hear sites like anandtech and tomhardware mentioning it like its butter on toast. Most computer forums has a WCing section and sticky on how to watercool. WCing has trickled down so much that people don't go to WCing only sites for information and support.
I think the technical aspect of WCing is matured and some feel there is nothing left to find.
I see evap or chilled liquid/subambient cooling with condensors in a similar place WCing was 5 years ago. You see DIY, build parts, people selling homemade kits, mixing gases, and other things that have some resemblance to WCing.
