Hey guys, haven't posted much, been to busy.
I have gotten myself a new AMD 3000+ with MB, I am thinking of peltier cooling it.
I am not new to peltier cooling as I am on a Slot 1 Intel Pentium 3 700e that is overclocked to 1120MHz with an 86W peltier with Alpha P3125 Heatsink.
I was playing around with my multimeter at work and was checking voltages of Laptop power adapter. Here is what I was on... Sony power adapter; output shows 19.5V DC and like 5.6 Amps. Now with the multimeter I got 19.9V DC and nearly 10 Amps If I remember corectly.
I do use a Sony power adapter (from Sony Discman) that is rated at 4.5V DC and 0.5 Amps to run 2 80mm Case fans that are mounted inside my monitor.
Has anyone tried to run a pelt with one of these adapter?
Do you think it will work?
I will probably test it with my 86W peltier, without the CPU, but still with the Heatsink to see if it blows up or anything.
Any info, comments, question?
