That 44% number is very misleading.
So is the statement of a 3D printed fan. Doesnt look like that to me

I was thinking about tape-on packets of dry ice for when I know I need more cpu power!
How about this? I had an old heat sink lying around from some broken machines so I was playing around with this concept. It actually does work where the heat sink did get warm and pull heat off the back of the SP3, but since it was flat, the built in venting probably didn't work as well as it should have.
Well, I don't have access to a 3D printer, so I don't have the luxury of making my own fan attachment. Since the heatsink is a passive one, it probably doesn't work as well as the fan, but in combination, it might be a better solution.
Wait....now we're talking about putting HUGE HEAT SINKS on the SP3???!?! Really??
No offence but let people do what they want with their stuff. If mohcho wants to strap a heatsink to his SP3, let him. I for one won't be but that's my prerogative.
To update you guys, here are the results from a few tests last night and this morning:
For this test I rand the XTU CPU load test at my home and after the TDP dropped to 10W I plugged in the fan. The CPU test starts after the first spiked drop in temp on the left and you can probably tell when I plugged the fan in.View attachment 3553
This morning I did the opposite with the GPU test while at work. First I ran the test with the fan then I unplugged it to see the results.
