Sigh, a peltier is a whole 'nother world of trouble that sometimes just isn't practical for most people. Watercooling, although becoming a little more mainstream, is still not entirely end user friend. Most peltier setups require additional power supplies that can provide the needed Amps, and sometimes voltage. And then you have to rig it up to start at the same time, and shut down at the same time. Not to mention that a peltier is a steady X Watt drain that can add up quickly as it can be the power drain of another system in just itself. I'd rather have a car with one gear than a car with three gears and a clutch that may or may not work.
