Even I could make up some variant of this. Anyone want to design something simple and easy to make? My first variation is to use 1/2" soft copper tube and kink it slightly to weave between the coils/caps.(more contact w/ copper plate and create some turbulence.) Will be adding it to the GPU - NB loop in my system.
Must be easy to make and non-restrictive of course

Depends on the board really. It is a pain in the ass in any event. The 2 newest boards I have, Asus A7V8X-X and the Abit KD7, both have mosfets 1/3rd the size of normal. And they are packed inbetween caps. Also I wouldn't use copper pipe inbetween the copper wire wound coils. Probably short your board out. Not sure though.
This is easier to do wih boards that have large mosfets though. Some boards even have heat sinks already attached.
