I did.  I still have 1 issue. 

My MBP Retina 2012 keeps overheating.

Serious question.  I have few older spare water coolers (up to 200 Watts+ TDP).

Is there a way to attach them to the CPU and use it as a desktop?

It keeps throttling (in the Linux console log) every few seconds.

CPU throttle.  Slows it down to 1/2 the speed it should be.

I have a syringe of KPx thermal compound.  I have used it on everything and it works.

Ryzen 7x with stock cooler overclocked.  On air.  Never crashes and it never overheats.
