Building and Cooling a Martian Mining Robot

Hey all, 

 

So this is my first time posting to the forum. I am trying to build a beast of a liquid cooling setup. I am the Software Engineering Lead on a team to build a robot that can theoretically mine for future Martian colonies. We are using some standard off the shelf parts and a budget of several thousand US dollars. The problem is we want to cool this without the use of fans. Basically, we are going to take a cooling block and pump liquid around the CPU that then is pumped into a massive radiator array. Pictures and comments will follow, but I just wanted to see what people think about this or if anyone had questions about the system in general. Again, pictures and videos of the interior of the system will follow. 

 

Edit (4/17/2018): It is looking like we will use an electric thermopile to chill the coolant in the radiator/reservoir that will, in turn, bring down the CPU temps so not that far off the "CPU cooler bong" brought up by RoyalGamer1.
