Default 2 Peltier WaterBlock

Does anyone know of a waterblock that is wide enough for 2 50mm X 50mm peltiers SIDE BY SIDE???? I know of some that are 40X40 but I need something bigger.

Default 100MMwoooo

Well I'm going to cool a Amd Athlon XP 1700+ but the main reason i want this type of setup is because I read article where A guy used 2 side by side peltiers to cool and old Slot CPU, intel 600 i think, but the temperatures were better when the peltiers were side by side instead of stacked, which is what i used to run on an older system. With stacked peltiers I was able to reach very low temps, but the system would heat up fast. With the side by side peltiers I saw that his temperatures remained low.

I want to try 2 176w peltiers side by side and see whats happens.

you'll probably have a blast insulating the stuff
but I dont see why not. I doubt youll get the performance differences you're out to get. get yourself a 10 x 5 coldplate and try. it cant get any worse than wrong
and youu probably get loads of problems mounting the stuff. but if its a challenge you eant then I wont be the one to stop you.

i cant see what mobo would allow for a 100 mm wb!

besides the athlon cores is very small most of the heat from that core will never reach the ends of that wb and if it does then you have some serious problems, your core will most likely be fried by then
