Senfu radiator and a 71W TEC?

Mbeach · 08-15-2001, 01:57 PM

Well, when reconfiguring my setup a accident happend with my old radiator which required me to buy a new.
In panic i ordered this Senfu block-radiator:

That was the only one i could order in sweden and get it the next day. But of course i'm not satisfied with it. First i needed to modify it. The inlets was waaay too small. So i cut them off (not too close to the rad) and got atleast a ID of 6mm. Attached my 10mm tubing and it worked like a charm. But it feels a little bit small, do you think it can handle a 71W peltier? Or should i order a new one and get rid of this one?

after opening the inlets, it should perform better than a DDcube.

so yeah, it should handle the little 71watt pelt no problem

i got pretty scared when saw the inlets when it arrived. God, should my Eheim force water through that?? No way!!

With a little dremel help i fixed it.

Yeah, that fan was one of the loudest i've heard... but i'm using it on 7V at the moment until i have time to fix a proper duct to my 120mm fan. After that it's peltier time...

what are you cooling with that small pelt?

Hehe, i'm cooling a P3 750@1GHz...
No it's not that warm comparing a AMD...

71W is not small for Intel Processors.
I have a 80W peltier, P3-750 @ 1035 at 1.85V, Blizzard cooling kit (Joe is going to flame me for this

), -10C idle, 13C load.
