I had a question regarding a new case mod idea. I wanted to attempth something similar to this. For those who can't follow the link...its basically a semi passive cooled system. Two large heatsinks reside in the center of the case with the gpu and cpu attached on each side.
I would be using a CPU that is 65TDP and a Cpu that is 75TDP (Nvidia Quadro).
My idea would to throw this in an Osmi case...with two large heatsinks in the center interlocked. CPU attatched on one side like I said before, and the GPU the other. In the Osmi case..the GPU will have to switch to a vertical position. Are there PCI riser cards that can do this...or can the existing ones bend?
I guess my main question is heat. If there is one 140mm fan blowing down over the heatsinks..will that be enough? HDplex's GPU heat sink has a max TDP of 90w...and the CPU def falls within the specs.
