  1. This would only serve a purpose if your computer was multitasking, not if your computer couldn't normally handle the game at a given FPS. "Priority" only has to do with CPU resources and RAM allocation anyway, so most games wouldn't be affected.
  2. I just got a better laptop that will actually run a CAD program so I'll make a sketch and get it posted so you can see what I'm talking about.
  3. My method wouldn't be to attach the peltier unit directly to the CPU (Sorry if I wasn't clear about that in the original post). The unit would be use to transfer heat using a waterblock FROM the water TO a heatsink on or near the exterior of the case.
  4. I had an idea a little while back about using a peltier unit in place of a radiator to cool the liquid cooling solution. The peltier units temperature is dependent on the amount of electricity being fed to it as well as the temperature of the hot/cold side so with some tinkering it should be pretty easy to find the right balance (I'm sure someone else has approximated this). Essentially you would have your heatsink mounted either outside or near the exhaust area of your case and attached to the "hot" side of the peltier unit. The "cold" side would be attached to a custom fin to cool your solution before it heads back to your reservoir. Since my computer was stolen a few months back I can't post designs or even hope to put this into action any time soon so I'd love to see this put to practice. Here is the math involved and the basic concept. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_cooling They can be bought online fairly cheap.
