HadesCore

Perfect thanks a lot, great idea looking through EK's compatibility list that's exactly the kind of out of the box thinking I was hoping for.
Much appreciated

I've gona back to top of the line standrad thermal paste. For some bizarre reason, my GTX 1080Ti was acting weird and I'm 200% I didn't short anything with it because I purposely insulated GPU surroundings with cheaper paste to prevent that. Also, temps (or clocks) were not any better than now with CoolerMaster Nano Maker. And it stained copper block so horribly I had to sand off part of it to get rid of the Conductonaut. Same with AiO. Had to sand the coldplate contact surface, because it stained raw copper so badly. And I only had it applied for 1 month or so. I don't know what was going on.
 
If you don't want complications, just get the best regular thermal paste you can get. Nano Maker is amazing and I heard good things about Kryonaut.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, after doing a bit more financial planning it seems you are correct vojta.pokorny, I guess this whole set up is more of a pipe dream than a reasonable alternative, I didn't overestimate the value of my system, but I did grossley underesitmate the final cost of the whole set up. Im going to opt for a seperate ultrabook, at this point it looks like a better idea would be to update my mobo to something with thunderbolt 3 capabilties and set up some software to seemlessly integrate the two systems when I get home via tb3. That could net me the same results im looking for at the cost of still having my gaming pc sitting on the desk, which when I quantify in price/value is a much more acceptable caveat, albiet I still have to research that idea, though that is dipping into a whole new topic now, I digress.
 
I appreciate all the helpful suggestions and info, thanks for pointing me in the right direction everyone
