Bad idea: since there's a mechanical limit to how much you can cool down a CPU, design a motherboard with a rotary barrel.

While one CPU is used, the other five can be cooling down!

@foone Rather than rotating, have it eject the hot CPUs at high pressure into an outgoing pipe.

The pipe flows through a heatsink, allowing the CPUs to cool to room temperature while still at high pressure.

Next the CPUs pass through an expansion valve, cooling them to below ambient before they are reused.
