Waiting on 4 Sticks. Will this work to power them?

    10 Front facing Standard A USB ports
    0.5 - 2A per port with 17mm port spacing
    Upstream port support high speed (480M)
    Box includes 1 x USB hub, 1 x 12V 5A Power Adapter, 1 x USB cable



Yeah, it would work quite well, actually. 17mm is plenty of room and even if you had a 10W fan you'd have 12W per stick which should let you hit 400MHz.

If you don't want to use a fan I recommend clocking nearer to 150MHz.
