Just to give some perspective on the performance you can expect...

Here's JoeC's review of the MCX462+T at Overclockers.

The MCX462+T uses a 226 Watt TEC.

A 150 Watt TEC and an 80 Watt TEC gives a total heat pumping capacity of 230 Watts.

The MCX462T has only a coldplate between the TEC's coldside and the CPU.

The setup being discussed will have two waterblocks between the TECs' coldsides and the CPU, but a bit more TEC surface area.

I'd guess the setup being discussed may give performance similar to the MCX462-T. Quite possibly worse.

Worthwhile?
