What kind of issues might I run into? Is this too much heat for the Vapochill to dissipate?
Thanks

well i can say it can be done but i no that it will be a to tune as i had tons of problems tunning the dual evap system i built for a guy. now i am not to sure what the vapochill LS will handle but are not most video card like 100 to 150 watts each so that would be 200 to 300 watts. some one please correct me if i am wrong as i have never phased video cards before and not to sure on there wattages so i am not to sure on if u would be happy with the temps u might get
like ruffus I am also unsure of what the vapochill can handle under load in wattage terms but it will depend on what gpu you are using 2 9600gt or 2 8800gt will be more likely then trying to cool 2 gtx 280s and so on but somewhere on XS there is a thread listing most current gpus and what wattage they put out and if you are phasing them I imagine you will be overclocking so take that into account then get some numbers on the vapochill someone on here will know what wattage the vapo can handle and match them up.
If it's the GTX 280 SLI you have in your signature then just give up now. Cooling GPUs below zero nets much less gain than cooling CPUs. You might gain a 20% performance increase for a 200% power consumption increase and added risk of toasting your video cards with condensation. Add to that the problems of building a two-headed direct die system and you are looking at much more trouble than it's worth. Watercooling is a fantastic step up for GPUs and even a modest liquid chiller, but direct die makes no sense for 95% of applications.
Great, Thanks guys!
Stock cooling will suffice then and ill sell my spare vapo

Ya. Vapochill ~ 180W max I'd say without mods.
