Looks like the patent is up as of this Feb, 2020

 

According to Google it should be 5 times better than copper. Are crude. Synthetic Diamonds the way of the future in heat sinks?

He does like to scratch his unit a lot on camera.

Now we need air coolers with diamond cold plate and Swarovski crystals in addition to RGB ...

I think you've just described Trident Z Royal

Seems rather pointless considering IHS, thermal paste, coolant and so on will not be made out of diamond, negating just about any performance improvement.

 

Diamond is one of, if not the best thermal conductors out there. That said, throwing it randomly into one fifth of a cooling solution surrounded by less efficient conductors is a waste of money.

Time for custom diamond IHS, TIM with diamond powder (aka carbon) and 'diamond' coolant which is just extra clear conventional coolant lol and change for all this twice as much.
