Peltiers!
I have used various pelts from different places TEC dis. and local stores. What i did notice about TEC Dis. is that there pelts dont' cool as much as the one i ordered localy. Even when compared to a pelt of lower rating it did not hit the low temps that i thought it would. Yes of course the 176W pelt that you have is powerful but it seems to be that if you clamp the pelt down hard and have sufficient water flow then your temps should be around 10C. Something about the temps dont' seem right. Maybe you should try getting the water very cold ie. putting frozen bottles of 2 liter sodas in. Have the water temps as low as possible and then see what kind of temps you get. If you go lower , which you should then its the water, it you stay the same then its the waterblock, pelt, clamp, core configuration thats wrong.
