A friend of mine sent me two brand-spanking-new Forster Xeons- two Intel XEON procs at 1.7 GHz each. All they came with was a big-ass heatsink. The motherboard and RAM I need is on it's way, but I have no idea as of yet how to cool this sucker. I was thinking pelt/liquid. However, where to get the required parts are beyond me at this point. I got suff for my other rig at DangerDen, but they don't have what I need, and I tried ordering stuff from there and the transaction wasn't working.

Anybody with a solution is more than welcome to post it. Oh, and no setups in which a coolant come in contact with both aluminum and copper. I don't want any corrosion.
