This won't impact the cooling process.
It is whispered that certain Arrow Lake models will include the backside power delivery option. Instead of placing both data and power lines on top of the transistor, this method routes the power lines from beneath the chip. This change aims to boost stability and expand overclocking capabilities since interference between data and power lines was previously a significant issue. When you remove the processor casing, you see the backside of the die, exposing transistors fully and keeping all wiring inside for better heat management. However, adopting backside power delivery could make cooling more difficult because the power lines would sit on top of the transistor. Some Intel presentations highlight potential drawbacks of PowerVia, suggesting that managing heat might become a challenge.
