Watercooling experiment!

[D3nrg]

Hi,

I always seen videos how to watercool our systems.most of us use radiators,other use waterblocks to a peltier,does anybody use both of them at the same system??

Reservoir to pump,pump to peltier,peltier to cpu,cpu to radiator,radiator to reservoir??? If a radiator by its own drops temps,why dont we try to drop them more using a peltier before the already cooled water goes to the cpu??? Needs lot of power but i think its fan!!!

Thanks

They have tried stuff like this before, the problem is the peltier units are just very inefficent, if you want to go below ambient, get a phase change system.

Not below ambient,just drop a bit more the temps...

Radiators will only help up until achieving ambient temperatures within the loop. When the coolant drops below ambient (by phase change/LN2, anything) then radiators will hurt the cooling since it will use the warmer ambient air to heat up the coolant.

Did you see the ltt videos about this? Your en up wasting so much power for a very small improvement.

I did this question cause i wanted to know if anybody tried this...

And you can put a thermostat to control power to the peltier so temps stay at any point you want,so radiators dont need to warm the water. If you can have always 10 degrees at cpu,winter and summer,is good.i ll try it.

Thanks

How did you manage to post this to Operating Systems is beyond me....
