TEC ah... welll since TEC are inefficient... y dont use the exact same concept like a fridge... easier... that way.... u can cool down all the components at the same time...

bro almostthere... yes condensation is a problem... well like i say... MAYBE we can use a lot of silicate to absorb as much moisture as we can... i think if we drop the temp to slightly below room temp( like using air conditioner) we might be able to not get condensation... temp toooo low will cause condensation immediately... correct me if i am wrong... hehe

even at my thermo lab in my uni where we did refrigeration cycle exp
in a room dat is very cold
condensation still happens

if not condensation....
u still have to consider frost build up

lol... i didnt have the chance to do that experiment it looks fun... with the phase change unit cooling down the air blowing towards us.... haha... i was forced to do the Vapour Tank experiment...very hot and a long experiment... well bro.... condensation happens at in a cold room due to humidity...reduce humidity and u will have less chances of condensation...

get a dehumidifier...

yea yea thats the stuff... lol i forgot what its called... hahahaha

its bad for ur skin ...

yea... thats y should build this sort of thing in a air tight casing.... make sure minimum or not air leaking into the case at all.... this would make sure best temperature with a minimum amount of humidity.... therefore less condensation.... hmmmm... if only i have the money now to start this sort of project.... hehe..... (i am thinking toooo much ad ) lol

bro u need to know ur water temperature before u get more powerful pump... if ur water temp is high even on sucky pump it wont be any better with a bigger pump... cuz ur only running 1 block in the system p2800 is more than enough for that..

P3800 mod to keep it cool. Simply just rip out the back cover (which is keeping all the darn heat inside) and use proper brass barbs

Like I said, someone did it before....waaaaaayyyyyyyy long ago and it was one hell of a mess since silica based dielectric grease is one messy goop and expensive for the amount your getting. Just look at what ARJ did for his DI pot prep job. And if you're intending to just drop the ambient to below normal, why bother with the hassle and added energy costing when you can use a portable air cooler and enjoy the breeze too. Right?

Not true, my suggestion is because I know what a P2800 can and cannot do and what it CANNOT do is counter the graviational flow resistance+radiators flow restriction which would cause, you guessed it right, latent heat stuck in block. Water temperature in this case is irrelevant and tbh, the P2800 has outlived it's usefulness what with that 1' long pump to block tubing and E8400 which funnily enough on air runs hotter then my outdated E6400

ermmm bro... i am not saying placing a peltier directly on the cpu like what arj did.... but more to air conditioning the whole pc.... its like using mineral oil with the pc in a tank... minus the oil.... removes hot spots slightly better than normal air cooling since it is in a low ambient temp....

you can stick a HSF on the hot side and the cold side and stick the cold side of the peltier in ur casing.. tadaa but the maximum difference in temperature of the hot and cold side that is achievable is 45C difference if im not wrong..

ya i've seen that before.... but not so good lar... haha... prefer pahse.... the fridge suggestion is totally out lar... haha a waste to buy a small fridge just to dismantle it...

Can use the fridge for extreme cooling.. Subzero bench..

wahahahahaha...... true true... cut holes on the fridges panels...... for the cables and then seal it with silicone..... then chuck the mobo inside the fridge... muahahaha bench bench...

clicky!! anyways i found this wonderful thread in Xtremesystems... check out his work... this is what i had in mind... too bad some1 beat me to it... haha

A cautionary tale of what happens when every kid gets overboard and becomes a blind faith fanboy. They drove Marci, Cathar and MaXXXracer away because of this
