Default Using pelt for cooling the air blown on rad

Hi,

I am working on a new projects which involves building a custom case around a SB75G2 Mobo. Having watercooling is fine and all, but I would think that blowing air of 30+ degrees Celcius in mid summer will not take much heat away from my Black Ice Extreme radiator I think. Now this is the idea




In the box, cooled by the pelt, a small portion of water/ice will be placed. This way, the fan will suck cool(er) air into the radiator. The whole thing may be ducted.


Any thoughts?

I think it won't help at all - the pelt will drop the air temp by a fraction of a degree at best.

That works, but it would be even more efficient to just add AC to the room
