Want to get into TECs but...
 
Okay, I want to make a waterchiller, out of maybe, 3 80w, or 2 120w, or 1 226w peltiers which will cool a CPU, and a GPU. But I really dont want to deal with condensation. Which of the choices would you recommend to get temps just a bit below ambient?

I was throwing around an idea like this, but after a messy attempt to insulate the block, I began thinking about an idea similar to Wymjym's. His site is here:

He used temp controllers tied in to the pelts to control condensation. A very good example, I think.

go for the 226watt and then get yourself a nice variable power-supply, that way you have the headroom for handling a lot of heat, but with the ability to set your temps to the desired level.

No no... build a chiller french style. Perfect for experimenting, uses 2 * 80 Watt (you really can't go higher with a HSF), plus it's external, so you can monitor it quite easily.

It's also perfectly safe of water leaks, but it would be more efficient if more of the heatsink was immersed.
