You can get a cold plate damn near anywhere that sells metal stock. There are alot of online merchants that will cut it to size. You'll just need to sand it to a shine. Also, you're going to need to find a way to bolt the thing to your block. Pelts need massive pressure (100-150 psi) to be maximally efficient. Keep that in mind when looking at your spiral. There are many condensation prevention tutorials everywhere, so read up. And don't skimp on the psu unless you're real ghetto and want to be tinkering with it alot. I know I'll get flamed for this, but you don't need a 226 for a XP2400 as they're supposed to be the same W load as a 2000 ... you could get away with a 176 or so, methinks, though your temps won't be as good. If you're looking for crazy overclocks, you might as well go for the stronger pelts ... no real reason not to unless you're concerned about power usage. Expect to spend in the neighborhood of $200 before all is said and done.
