Hi, Id like to water cool my Toshiba S855D-S5120 laptop to get the most out of its performance. I don't want to mod the stock parts(just in case) but i cant find a replacement heat sink. I don't really know where start so any help is appreciated. And don't try to convince me that i need a cooling pad or stuff like that I already have some of those gadgets and the do help but i want to do the extreme.

Thanks for any help

How are you planning to power the pump, radiator, and reservoir? Do you have a closed loop cooler?

Oh. If you aren't making it mobile, why not have the extra features of overclocking and better performance of a desktop? With that money, you could make a pretty decent PC. You would probably need a power supply to power this and would have to build a whole case for it.
