TEC questions
Hi,
I'm thinking about going w/c + TEC. So far I got WCing which includes:
MCW462-U
DD Z-Chipset block (poly top)
(just bought, awaiting) MCW50-T
Radiator with 4 x 120 @ 7v
1200 Quiet One Pump (296 GPH ) max head 6.1
and homemade BayRes
everything is 3/8.
now questions:
I want to buy pelt kit for MCW462 with 226W peltier + 169W peltier with coldplate for Z-Chip (or 80W? and is it OK if the block has poly top?) + the MCW50-T i'm waiting for is coming with 80W pelt. I think that I'll definately need second power supply for TECs. But can I get regular PSU or do I need dedicated one? (like MEAN WELL S-320-12 - thinking about buying it). If I can use reg power supply which one should I get and which pelt connect to which PSU. My current PSU in my system is True Control 550W. If it's better to buy mean well, can I connect all three tec blocks to it? or is it better to break it between PSU's? Another question is how much power will all those 3 TECs draw? Will I see significat increase in electricity bill running 24/7 (for example)? Is the montioned Mean Well PSU loud? Do pelts produce any noise? (electricity "humming"). I'll have more questions coming. thank you
