I tore it apart today and it is sitting here in the computer room, I have to build a nice enclosure for it and a watertank to submerge the evaporator in to cool the water in the tank then I will plumb my water pump to pull from this tank and still use the cooling cube to cool the water a little before getting dumped back into the tank for a never ending viscious cycle
Should work out pretty good, I might end up getting a better thermostat for it so I can have a little better control over the water temp. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is insulating everything. I ran it for a while here in the room without a fan to help cool the condenser and had frost on the evaporator, should get the cpu temp down pretty good. I was going to get a pelt but I am having a hard time finding a power supply that will handle the voltage with the amperage. Besides this A/C unit is free. Just have to buy the materials to make the enclosure and water tank. Anyone have any ideas on what to make a water tank out of that will just barely fit a radiator 3" thick, 12" tall, and 18" long?
