My heatload will contain the following:

1x1900+@approx. 1880 (Palomino)
1x2400+@2400 OR!!! 1X1700+ (TbredA)@2000+Mhz (????)
1x700 Slot A stock
1x110W pump (jeezus pleezus)

And that is for starters. Next year, a dually Opteron is going on this bad boy. I estimate it'll add another 130W one way or another.

All told, I expect an immediate heat load of about 350W. Next year that'll be approaching 500W. That's a lot of frickin heat. That also assumes I never put any GPUs on the line (I probably never will due to the fact that I can live without the latest and greatest GPU ... I have a 8500LE @275/275 128MB now, and my other primary box is running a GF2MX400/64MB). With the radiator with ONE caravel running through it at 10W (I don't have the spec cos I'm lazy, but I estimate 450CFM out of it and dB levels at two feet of 33-34), I expect to have water temps at 4-5C over ambient (typically around 90-100F in the summer and 70-80F in the winter ... my machinery puts off a ton of heat).
