As far as I'm aware it is very simple ...
electric watts in ~= thermal watts need to be removed

I think you could substract electromagnetic radiation of wavelengths other than 380-740 nm and sound as these two are also are also as heat are ways that energy is emitted in.

I would be glad if someone more knowledgable confirmed whether I'm right or bullshitting, though.

How many GPUs and in what conditions are you mining with that you need that kind of cooling?

It won't be effectively cooling its maximum load for a month or so, but I expect to cool about 11,214 watts of ASICs and GPUs with this based on my research.
I'm not really sure how accurate this number is because there is very little information on the subject, but I plan on adding rigs/ASICs until it can no longer deal with the heat. Wink

Are you sure it is going to be worth to run mine the GPUs with the added cost of electricity for cooling them? Have you checked how much do you have to pay for the electricity (+ costs of transmission/distribution + taxes)? It might be OK for now, but expect for the difficulty to increase 5-10x in a year or so if BFL delivers and Avalon continues to deliver.
