I was lookin' around and i saw this. some of watercoolers might be interested as it looks like if you mod it, it'll make a crazy radiator.

er... wow, how about getting mineral old, submerging everything in water and then having that heatsink cool everything.

if you got 5 you could have a X shape with the middle one having water going through it

I think that the channels need to be smaller to allow efficient absorction of heat from the water, otherwise that thing is beautiful.

looks like a 120mm fan would fit perfectly on either end...har ar har. and yes that is jessica alba...WOOOO!
*idea*
one word...water chiller. that thing is HUGE! it would make a good chiller with a bunch of little TEC's...man oh man. you could probably direct the cannels well enough to travel up and down and up and down.

Nooooo...nononono! Water chillers are THE DEVIL! I blew $85 on parts to make one, and it barely worked. It was pathetic...it only slowed my water temps from going up, instead of bringing them down. A very bad choice of investment. I tried to recover the pelt and heatsinks, but lost all three because I made the mistake of using Arctic Silver Epoxy :o
