The Hayden kits have worked great so far. The graphics loop's radiator never gets even warm, and the resevoir temp remains static all day. This is with a full 14.8v on the pelt.

I'm not sure how the larger Hayden tranny cooler will perform under the 226w pelt+P4 load of approximatly 400 total watts, but its an even larger model than the one im using in the graphics loop, with its own faster pump. If the side mounted larger radiator for the CPU loop gets warm..so be it. Costs me what 10 degrees? I think any radiator will warm up under that much wattage.

I have 6 Panaflow 80mm low speed fans per radiator, each with its own Rheostat allowing me anywhere from 14.8v down to fan stall speed.

My powersupply is a Pyramid 35amp unit with adjustable voltage up to 14.8. (multimeter reading) Its really heavy and puts out great DC power, and only ran me about 115 bucks shipped.
