Drop an ice cube in a glass of room temperature water and take it out after 3-5 seconds. Water temp. will not change much.

Hi JIMS:
You and most likely Kevin were very disappointed in the sink top experiment.
Let me say: Er.. Ah... Ummm... in a polite way that Kevin's methodology in this experiment was not -er... exactly - Ah .. setup correctly.
No offence Kevin, but there are two ways to get operational performance with an inline chiller, giving a CPU temperature of 5C to 12C with just two 80W potted peltiers at 8.5Amp and 13.8Volts. This CPU temperature can be made to operate ( with no peltier on CPU ) by some careful and creative methods.
Please look at the flow path ( of the nifty red hoses )on the picture in bathroom
If you look at the image in the mirror, the appears to be a loop back between the Upper and Lower three pelt copper blocks.
Please examine and see if you concur.
JimS, did you happen to view those links to pictures, on
www.overclockers.com.au ?
The are large pictures - so please pan to right on screen shot - it displays 8C CPU temp.
Anyway I think Kevin can use the blocks in a creative way to lower an existing closed loop water cooling system. A few peices of wet suit neoprene on the exposed frosty side of the chiller block and some hardware store 1/2 inch pipe insulation 79 Cents for six foot. This will give chiller inventors better results.
I'll have a bit of time over next weekend to further explain in a new thread, those two methods which we have previously tested and operate for inline chillers. Both single curcuit and dual curcuit configurations.
Regards and Cheers Amy Croft
