Got a Tbred down to -27°C. Some nice machining work there too, and good idea to use cheap ATX PSUs for powering the pelts.

Ya... 4 * 480 Antec PSUs... that's an abuse of electricity!

But hey, they overclocked an AXP 2700+ to 2'998.1 MHz (13 * 230.63), not bad!!!

If the peltier technology wasn't so innefficient... Dang. I'm jealous but I wouldn't want to spend 2 kilowatts of electricity to duplicate their efforts. I'll just have to try and find the time to hook up that R22 compressor that I got from a scrapped freezer. Anybody willing to give me some of their time please? I need more spare time. :D

Great effort from them, and some very nice machining, but boy oh boy how unefficient this setup is not to mention the price, for that kind of power vasting you coul save up prometeia in few months, not to mention, the price of machining and where the hell do they dump all the heat.

they should've waited for those new more efficent peltiers those fancy scientist were promising us a few years back...

Still waiting for those and my jet pack!
