Oh, what to get...

[Chris_F]

I have a Celli-t I wan't to cool with a TEC.

What type of water cooling/TEC setup should I get?

I was thinking of using a MAZE1C-1 waterblock.

Should I get a 169W or a 226W TEC?

Would I have a better chance at a high OC if I had a 226W TEC? Lets say 2GHz maybe?

What type of radiator should I get?

Thanks.

do you have any information on the celi-t? I know nothing on them, That would help me figure out what you would need.

For what reason do you want to peltier cool it? and for what reason were you thinking the MAZE1C-1? There are a few newer waterblocks out for peltier cooling that might work better, maybe the maze2 or 3.

Is this chip like P4s? p4 mobo and all?

I want to peltier cool to get a higher OC. The processor is a Socket 370.

you probably won't need the 226w peltier.

if I remember correctly, the Tualatin doesn't put out much heat.

the delta T for the two peltiers aren't much different, and the heat load is quite small.

I'll try find out how much heat that is exactly...

around 60w, even if you use something like 1.8v for 1700Mhz.

you'd be able to cool that with a 120w peltier.

If I remember correctly 156w peltiers exist. You could probably use that and it would be more than enough.

If you managed to get 2Ghz out of it, with 1.8v, that would be 75w, which can still be cooled using a 156w peltier.

I think the pre chill temperature you get out of a 156w peltier and a 226w peltier won't be much different.

edit:

I just had a look under the CPU database, and it looks like no one goes above 1.75v on that processor. Very few people get up to 2Ghz though.

yeah, by the sounds of it, definately go with a 156watt peltier, youll get nice cold temps and itll be able to handle the heat without a problem.
