Personally, I'd say don't bother until you're watercooled. S'just not worth it otherwise.

If you don't have the money to go water, then youdon't have the money to go TEC. And don't even ask about air-cooling TEC.

Aircooling TEC is an excercise in pain.

TECs are finicky, expensive (power bill and parts), and dangerous (ruins many people's computers when they do fail).

pelt and air don't get along well! I feel that doing it is a wast of a good system!
