If you want an easy 2Ghz, wait until next month when you can buy an 1800+ (same as yours) TbredB for $80-90 that you can watercool to 2.1Ghz. If you aren't experienced in watercooling, peltier use is a dangerous road to go down. Get a good WC setup going for a few months and do a ton of research ... then see if you still want to go through the pelt hassle.

Alternatively, if you haven't bought anything for a WC/Pelt setup yet, look at a Prometia. It'll cost more than the WC/Pelt combined, but you'll get your 2Ghz.

Also, look into Volt Mods for your board. On an old 1800+ stepping (they sucked), you'll need some V going through it to get that high, and that will involve some serious cooling. You'd really be better off with even a TbredA than that.

(If you bought your proc within the last four months that may not apply).
