i was wondering if i could use a peltier to bring my CPU temp below room temp but above the dew point. where i live the humidity is 50-70% and i'm not sure i want to go through all the hassles of fighting condensation. btw i've never tried a peltier before
i could probably rig a modest 52W to run at 7Volts but i'm afraid the peltier might be overwhelmed under load, any ideas or suggestions? my p3 750@1005 w/PEP66 idles at 39ºC it crashes sometimes under load.. could be other problems but let's solve the heat first, intel's thermal specs say a 1gig p3 puts out 26.1W, should i trust intel? (NO! haha) anyone rigged a peltier like this before?
anyway thanks alot in advance =)
