Hmmm..ok; I'm confused. I'm reading posts and seeing pics of guys with frost and sub-zero temps running Swiftech MCW462-UTs and a regular H2O system (Eheim+heater core). How are they able to do that? I mean, it sounds like you can't really accomplish below ambient temps with a TEC without a water chiller. Is that correct?

EDIT:Of course, I don't know what your average MCW462/Eheim1250/ChevetteHC+120mmHSF water cooler runs as far as C/W goes.
