All he can do is patent his design. Which I know what it is. It is inferior to what I have done. All it is a big cap over the CPU with water aimed at the core. Nothing special. The design was so failed it didn't sell well and I think one of the reasons Leufkin went out of business as that was the best he could come up with.
There is no way you can patent direct die cooling, you can only patent how you have done it. Otherwise there would be no competition in the business world if every company patented each thing there is. Ford would have all the rights to making cars, Intel would have all the rights to making CPU's, Danger Den would have all the rights to making water blocks, ect... You can patent your tech, and that is it. Luckily Leufkin was not nearly as advanced back then as we are today and his patents are useless and in the hands of someone that can't even tell the difference between a direct die and a non direct die block.
