This is a cool (ha!) idea, but if you're going to have an external unit, you might as well be using an eGPU, because those things stay much cooler and since the GPU isn't heating up your laptop internals the CPU temps are also easier to manage. This also allows you to use a much smaller / lighter laptop while achieving basically the same performance, provided that the non-gpu specs are similar (i.e. you're not CPU throttling yourself). The bottleneck is bandwidth due to thunderbolt connection being slower than a direct mobo connection, but I would suggest that that's going to be overcome by the time water cooling in laptops could realistically become a widely adopted feature.
