I saw something like this on Tom's Hardward a few days ago! I wonder when it'll be available to purchase
Just one more reason I want to work at Sandia!

Almost a year later, I find this article: http://www.extremetech.com/computing/131656-the-fanless-heatsink-silent-dust-immune-and-almost-ready-for-prime-time
The idea sure looks cool on video, but I wonder how much a CPU cooler like this would cost.

Looks like the big brains at Sandia National labs have come up with a new heatsink that actually rotates as it heats up on an "air bearing" spinning a sort of metal impeller that draws cool air in and expels hot air. Too bad it looks like it only operates on an horizontal surface.
