OK, I want to get a peltier setup but I need to know what would be a good rig. I was thinking of getting the 165W peltier from becooling http://becooling.safeshopper.com/10/17.htm?77 do I need to get a cold plate and CPU shim? To cool the peltier I was thinking of getting this watercooling setup http://becooling.safeshopper.com/3/160.htm?77 . What do you guys think? Would this setup work well? Any help and feedback will be much appreciated. Thanks alot.

u need a cold plate

make ur own setup or peice it together

if u get bims(black ice micro) get the ones with 3/8 tubes thats what i did i really dont like those 1/4.

goood luck make sure u insulate ur mobo and zif when u throw on that pelt or say night night to the puter. that will make some nice condensation...

Ok so the cold plate goes between the cpu and pelt? And what's a zif? Thanks for the feedback...

Meh...nevermind...I think I may just get the watercooling kit. I wonder what kind of temperature change I will get with that kit...

ZIF Zero Insertion Force. Its the plastic thingy that the CPU sits in.
