well last night I did some testing and found that I had -19c on the block out of the case running 10-15c chilled water through it. this is my 172w (24v)tec at 12.6v.. so results are good but Im going to do this now.

block
mcw40 non tec copper bottom
pelt hot side
pelt cold side
mcw40-t stock copper bottom
gpu

since both plates are exactly the same size all i figure I have to do is get longer bolts that will fit though both plates and sandwich the pelt between two MCW40 plates the hot side will have dimmples (stock mcw40 non-tec plate)for added turbulence and Ill use the stock coldplate.. this way I can get superior pressue that I hear is what needs for optimal performance and at the same time give the hot side a base to disperse the heat away more evenly.. will this help? I hope so.
