I'm a bit concerned about your setup there. any specific reason why you chose that small heatsink for the CPU or why you needed to rotate them 90 degrees? I would suggest beefing up that heatsink a bit and relocating those caps near it for better airflow if you keep it like that.

im going to create a single "tanked" heatsink that will cover both the CPU and the GPU
and if i use copper strips it should be good
my initial test was with the 2 origional GPU heatsinks but the test only lasted 30min then
it overheated.
my later tests ran for around 3 hours hopefully when i upgrade the sinks it will run even longer

i haven't updated this in a while (on this site)
so heres the next step..

This is a mock-up cardboard case so i could set it all up inside..


and here is a picture showing the you CAN use tiny heat sinks on a 360

(i played mass effect 2 for many hours)
