My system: Dual P3 933's on a VP6 mobo

Plan: To install a watercooling system so I can bump the speed up from 1051 (air cooled) to around 1200 (but I will settle for 1120+). I am installing two dangerden blocks, hayden 4x4 radiator, magdrive 250 pump. Now if the watercooling doesnt cool at least around 85F under load at the max mhz I can get I will use a Peltier. But I only want temps around 85F max, Im not looking for ultra low temps that freeze water, etc. If that was my plan I would build a phase change freon system and go to town! So will say two 55watt peltiers work ok for that knida of setup?. Also know that when I run linux or Win2K they take advantage of SMP so the load is always being shared therefore temps are always low because I rarley use 100% system potenital only like in Quake3 or compiling a shit load of programs for Linux :-P
