Hello if SparkedFire is just looking to cool with a water chiller then that is great I have played with water chilling and refrigeration witch all of this is my field of work I work for a thermal cooling company here in Canada that we design & install chilling units for all kinds of applications for hospitals and labs. If people wanted the bulky phase changers and just wanted to cool the CPU then that’s good to. I think what SparkedFire is looking to do is cool the CPU not freeze it lol. I will strongly recommend however you have to use the right equipment for pelts you don’t want to spend money and time for nothing. First you need to do your home work on TEC cooling there is a lot of information out there far less confusing than some explanations I have read. For a quick overview of some of the equipment you will need. You have to get the right PSU you need a temp controller, pump rad or rads blocks and to figure out what you are going to use for your chilling unit itself most water blocks used for CPU’s are insufficient and will not do the job as well you may have to design your own and any machine shop can help you out there. As for condensation one way I combated that problem was with putting a hose into another for isolative properties I had taken all the precautions as if I where to install a pelt on the chip itself. My block that had the pelts that made my water chiller was in its own compartment above the comp compartment including my rad and pump for cooling the hot side of the water block. I used a server tower for this project also taking ambient temp into consideration all I did was use a small radiator inside the case with a blower attached to it and the chilled water went through the rad first before the CPU GPU ext... Thus bringing the ambient temperature down inside the case. Also you need to control the chiller separately from the computer meaning you have to be able to turn the chiller on first for a bit to give the chiller a chance to bring the liquid you are chilling to a desirable temp. My suggestions is just do your home work first then go for it if nothing else you will gain knowledge from your willingness to try something new. One finale note done right Water Chillers are a lot more versatile than the rest. As for Over-clocking you can over-clock higher than if you where to just use water cooling.
