Why don't you just get someone to make you an 8 or 12 62mm TEC chiller block. It'd have much greater performance and probably still cost less. Unless you are ripping the Boreas units out of your old computer. Anyways I'll look forward to future updates.
i totally agreeQuote:

Oj101 - Thanks, I love the design and the horizontal tray makes it easier to install additional / heaver components.

And we all know how that will turn out:

ROFLMAO
Sry OT... Looking forward to some results
Do you allready have the case or you will be making it, post pics of procedure. BTW nice renders!
NaeKuh,
Epic would be nice… I had 24 TEC’s in my last system with 3 8800’s and the power consumption was around 713 watts idle and 926 watts under a full load w/ the CPU @ 4.2… Dual PSU is a must on this build….
Not sure how practical of a build this will be but I'm sure it'll keep me busy.
The Shooter,
The anodized panels are being shipped from the US and I should have them within a few days… I wish I could take full credit for the renderings but most of that belongs to MM… They will be making most of the primary cuts and I’ll be making the rest.
All the panels arrived today and it only took about an hour to put together... The only thing I’m not too happy about is that it has razor sharp edges… I cut my fingers a few times - Nothing too serious...

Today I installed the motherboard w/ EK block

That sure is one extreme project! I really like the look of that case.
I'm not really familiar with TEC chillers - where are the 48 individual TECs going?
I do know my custom made waterchiller is more power-efficient :wasntme:
not over 48 tec's which he is gonna cycle.Quote:

Your unit will be better then a conventional tec unit, but this guy is way beyond conventional.
Really? My waterchiller can cope with ~1KW heatload at 400W electrical power draw, while keeping the water at 10C below ambient. Hard to beat that efficiency really.
you can have a TEC chiller run at 7 to 1 if you want . That's in theory at least.
in theory as long as the delta is kept low a TEC chiller can be mind blowingly "efficient"
I see.. so the main factor here is how far below ambient one goes?
Interesting. I'd still like somebody to explain how to mount 48 TECs in one loop - or why you need that many in the first place?
Can't you just use 24 TECs that are twice as strong? :shrug:
you could use 24 but then the efficiency will drop
Oh my, thats really beatiful case. I like it a lot!
yeah when you have that many tec's you can really milk the effiency, so at that point even a standard phase compressor cant keep up with the CoP.Quote:

However the moment u reach the mid double digits in TEC's, he has you beat.
Currently working on the chiller with a few projected delays…
Unfortunately I’m missing a few crucial parts needed to complete the chiller. Hopefully I can resolve this issue within the next few weeks.

Thanks for the kind words – I love the size not to mention, how easy it is to access different parts of the case...
I love this build. Keep up good work man. Subscribed
