Heh was bored and so came up with this idea. Since pelt stacking is a little difficult to get to work due to the fact that the waterblock may probably get overwhelmed, I was thinking of trying a 4 X 172 watt gig directly on the CPU. Due to not having sufficient space around the socket, I've came up with a triangle coldplate idea. Take a look here

The cold plate of course would be completely insulated with neoprene especially the air space in the middle of the triangle. The angles of the triangle can be calculated so that the rig can clear capacitors.
Heh maybe my next cooling project, though I need to find the funds for it.
What do you think?
