He defect I see your close to my old neck of the woods.. Reno Nv.

I decided that I'm going big, because I can really use a 6 tec chiller on my testing bench.. I had krow mock it up in sketchup so...

nah.. It was always about the watercooling mosfets and controller in the post.. It was just on the chiller..

zipidee dooo dah.. :rolleyes:

Interesting solution if you want an external power supply.

nah.. that was more about the controller and the driver boards then the actual chiller itself.. and so not a dbl post !! weee..

Here is an interesting arqtik chiller/controller if you don't want to do something diy :)

troll!!

Do yourself a favor and post on an electronics forum... they will point you in the right direction

Just go look at the performance charts. you can get all the information you need off them

This is wrong.. amperage will decrease as dt increase at a set voltage..

At the proposed heat load the tecs will be running at 11 amps with a dt of 30 if the voltage is set to 8v...

I apologize if I missed your email. I try to reply to every request for information.

Update:

I finally got around to adding Dewpoint safety to the controller.

I also shortened the height of the block and added black cap screws

Lcd now displays as follows:

H=Humidity...

it was run against an xt, and run at ambient, it still beat the xt by a couple degrees

max watts is 150w and uses a standard pcie cable to run the setup.

I'm running about 15-30 watts on normal gaming etc.

I7 2500K @ 4.6ghz on cpu

I just ran my new waterblock against apogee.. ouch

Well here is my newest water block

Figured Id give xtremesystems tec forums some love.

Pros:

1. No insulation required. The controller is set to user selectable from 15-25ºc with an ambient...

I guess the first question is what are you looking for in temps?

The thing that gets most first time enthusiasts is that tecs are only good for about 30-40ºc delta on hotside water temps on a load...

One thing to consider is your ambient temperature of 32ºc is higher than comfortable for most people.

Most of us keep our rooms between 20 and 24ºc, so our water temps would be 10ºc cooler than...

The dt's seem better on this than my chillers by about 5-10ºc, but for 24/7 thats really nothing because we never run them at 100% anyway.

On a side note are you still interested in putting a...

I've got this block detuned for 24/7 running the tecs at 50% imax. I actually never turn the controller down under about 15-20ºc so I don't have to insulate and to keep my powerbill down.

This...

My quad radiator is having a hard time cooling it, but even at water temps of 48ºc here is a quick occt test run.. ambient is 25ºc
I'm working on replumbing the block in parallel and swapping out...

I just finished up my new tec water block. It runs off a tec controller using the existing computers power supply and a single quad radiator for cooling.

Update:

I have everything mounted and I did a little mock up in a cheap case.
