How effective would this be?

Alives · 03-01-2001, 06:46 AM

What If i put a peltier in between 2 waterblocks (a block on the hot side and one on the cold side) and put the cold side in the line before it hits the processor and the hot side after the processor? I know it wouldnt work as well as direct peltier on coldplate on cpu cooling, but would it be effective enough to try it?

My main concern with peltiers is insulation and I feel that I wont be able to insulate well enough. Plus I'd like to be able to sell my equipment when I upgrade.

it could work..

but you have to tune the waterflow to below 100/50 GPH of sth.. then u dissapate all the heat generated by the hot side and cpu with the rad.

the best is as slow as possible..

otherwise the u can't make enough Tdelta..
(the watertemp isn't lowered at the cold side..)

but i don't know if it will work well..

yeah, I'd have to have some highly effective waterblocks. maze2 looks good but not fot 50 bux

btw..

the pc generated much heat, so u want a good waterflow there,

in contrast: the peltier and the radiator require a real low waterflow..

u shouldn't try it if u don't have the stuff available
