Has anybody tested this config.
I'm wondering if it would be better then just striaght water or actually be worse.
I'm trying to avoid condensation.

I tested the 5V 80w pelt and it works good, about 7c.

What I would like to do is just use a straight waterblock. All I have is this pelt block MCW40T, 80w built in, so I'm trying to get it to work like staright water:D

No, condensation happens at any temp below ambient (depending on humidity levels).

Thanks Mickey,
I could accually just go by swiftech and pick one up, so keep that one :).
I was hopeing to maintain the plate temp about ambient while the NB was running, this would be better then water. I'd have to drop the voltage a little more I think.

i have a question. i'm using mw50-T, the peltier power connecters are very hot. Why is it so? Is there anything wrong? And what's the solution. Thank you so much.

but i'm using an Antec 480 watts. According to the winbond hardware monitor, it say that my 12+ is at 11.86 volt. So what do u think? THanks.
