Yes, I checked the stickies, and since I haven't seen any of these come across the overclocking forum, I figured it'd be safe to ask. I've read up on this while at work and have seen many guides, now I'm intrigued.
Sooo, here we go, I have some questions regarding peltiers, not watercooling.
1. On a P4 2.8C outputting a 92W (I had it to 98W at one point) of heat. What would be a good peltier for overclocking (size, brand, watt, amp)? What type of overclock could one expect using a high-flow watercooling to cool the peltier?
2. If you completely seal off the socket adapter, reverse side of the board (opposite chip), and any other necessary parts. How dangerous is this?
3. For a Radeon 9800XT, also on watercooling, what'd be a good sized peltier?
I was thinking of having a system setup to run:
- Res to GPU to MOBO to Radiator (a 120mm one) to CPU to Radiator back to res. The mobo and GPU would get the peltiers.
Is it worth it? I'm at 3.35 on Air, I wouldn't mind either hitting 3.35 with subzero temperatures (it just feels cooler), or getting a 3.6/3.7. Anything higher is a blessing. I plan to eventually goto a 3.0/3.2 Prescott.
