Vapochill Lightspeed AC + Yorkfield?

[mandelore]

Hi guys, just wondering (throwing ideas about meh head here)

How well you reckon the Vapochill lightspeed AC would handle a quadcore Penryn processor? I know it can do 4ghz air, but.. what about on phase??

Im just trying to finally get a solution for cooling, and found a few sites in the uk that will allow monthly payment for this unit, so i can spread it out over say 36 months etc etc...

I was intending on going back on peltier cooling, but always liked the idea of phase. what u guys reckon?? the 3ghz yorkies have a TDP of approx 130W, so im wondering how this would fair?

Id obviously have to mod my pc case a wee bit...

just fishin for thoughts here. All comments welcome ;)

hmm, i may give the sellers a call in the morning and see how long it would take to get one, at least then i can use it for future more energy efficient processors that come out.

Will be able to afford it via the miracle of monthly payments :p

i'd estimate in the 5ghz range for penryn + tec

people can get 4.something on air
and 6.something on ln2

so yea..
