Hey guys,

If I am going to use a Thermaltake Aquarius2 water cooling system with a peltier between WaterBlock and CPU will I need to insulate :

1. At all?
2. Just around the socket and the back of the motherboard?
3. Around the socket, motherboard and WaterBlock

I am sure I will not get any amazing temperatures in my waterblock? Do you only need to use insulation on hoses and WaterBlock when you are using a water chiller? Do you think I will get condensation on waterblock considering I wont be very cold due to low end water cooling?
