Well, I don't know much about pelts, what I was wondering was what kind of pelt I can use to cool down my 3.0c processor. I know what kind of insulant to use and how to do it.

I know if I use watercooling with the peltier I will get better temps for overclocking. But how much of an improvement will I see with a good watercooling setup combined with a pelt?

Thanks in advance for the help.:D
 
you will need a 226W (a 174W might cut it if you have a proper ps). You have to use watercooling with those babies, lots of heat to deal with (oc'ed CPU + TEC = over 300W). As far as improvement, it really depends on your water setup and how far you oc, but i'd guess 0 to 20° load (with ambient of 20°C)?!? Not too sure here, better wait for someone with a tec setup and same cpu as you to reply.
