Im considering wedging an 80w peltier between a waterblock (cold side) and an HDT-s1284 cooler (hot side) to supplement the cooling on my water cooled rig. Ive go an overclocked FX6100 and an r9 290. Im using 1 60mm thick 1x120mm, 1 45mm thick 2x120mm and 1 45mm thick 3x120mm radiators. I believe that if i place this TEC setup just before the pump that I can drop my overall average temps a little and get a bit more overclock out of it or just lower voltages.
i believe that I can keep my temps fairly constant and reduce the heatload on the TEC to a level manageable with the heatsink.
i know im not going to get a huge temp drop but i think it will be lower than adding more radiators since the cooling return diminishes quite rapidly adding radiators.
Any insight?
