Acer aspire A515-54 N18Q13 CPU die with no cooling?

[Sigfried]

So, I was cleaning my brother's laptop when I noticed something rather concerning.

One of the CPU dies, sitting just under the Heatpipe, connected to it by a nice layer of air, which as far as I remember, doesn't conduct heat very well.

 

Now, I'm no expert by any stretch of the imagination but, Aren't dies those things made of billions of teeny tiny transistors, which are constantly moving electrons around, causing them to be the most heat-producing component in a pc?

 

Have I missed something?

Did Acer create a new thermodynamically impossible wireless heat transfer technology?

 

 

A can of propylitic alcohol and a syringe of NT-H2 are already on their way, but I wanted to ask your opinions before I ruin Acer's wireless heatsink.

 

Is there really such a thing as a die that doesn't require cooling?

 

Shoul I use an heat pad instead?
