Stacking pelts
Sup ppl. its me again. yeap thats right. Now suck it.
Okay, I got a new joint used from Jason. A PSU, 266w pelt and maze3-1. Now. I am testing it for overclocking right now and I just got my new XMS memory today, i'm gonna test that tomorrow and achieve high FSBs hopefully. The soldered wire on the pelt is really s h i t t y and I had to resolder one wire and the other one mysteriously disappeared. So i soldered a higher guage wire with lots of pain. SO, now to my idea. My friend has a 156w pelt, its semi broken from running it upside down for a lil a long time ago. But it works fine. Could I stack the 226w pelt and the 156w right on top of it to achieve higher temps? I am watercooled with a big arse radiator (http://www.geocites.com/sonixos) and 1 172 mm comair rotron and 1 120mm panaflo. Talk about noise. Yes? No?

No.
It can be done, but it's not efficient. In this case, the 156W pelt would be the closest to the CPU, and the 226W pelt would be in contact with the waterblock, because the bigger pelt needs to dissipate the heat transfered by the smaller pelt, plus the internal heat of the smaller pelt as well as its own. |

No.
A 172w pelt uses 280w of heat, a 226w pelt about 320w. If you were running the 226w pelt on the bottom you'd need 4x 120w, or 2x 226w pelts to cool it down. You could also use 4x 172w pelts. but then if you were going that far then I'd just go phase change
