Ok, been running my watercooled system for about 1 year. However, for the purpose of benchmarking... I would like to have some better GPU/CPU clocks. I can run my 1800+ @ 2.4ghz stable 24/7, which is fine for me. But how can I get some better cooling for benchmarking? I can run 3dmark @ 2650mhz. But as I said I want more, and my watercooled GPU deffinately could use some help. Oh, and I usually bench at a room temp of about 5C.

A TEC on just the GPU might be sufficient. But then we're probably talking about an external PS. I would like to still be able to take the rig to LAN parties. Can my AntecTrue550W PS power a descently performing TEC?

What about taking the fan off my heatercore and just dumping the heatercore in a tub of ice water? Would I have to insulate as much as if I was using a TEC?

What are your thoughts? Looking for best price/performance w/ practicality in mind... I suppose I could just build a seperate rig for LANs... but I'm not that rich yet. What's the life span on a machI?

Thanks for your knowledges as always.
