1st Hi to all - not a regular poster but most certainly a long time lurker of this forum.
I'm not currently in a position to venture in to building my own phase change and TBH while I understand all the principles and mechanics behind it all I'm not going to unless I put myself through a Hvac course 1st.
Anyhow used to be many years ago very into the overclocking scene but stopped when it started getting a tad too expensive for me after x amount of busted Gfx & CPU's from pushing too far with vmods and such like.
I have currently doing nothing a Prometia <sp?> & Vapo-chill phase change units from days gone by when I built my doublecoolermaster unit.... http://brittech.co.uk/casemod.htm & http://brittech.co.uk/mypc.jpg mix of phase and water cooling.
Getting to the point..... I know these units will not even cope with current CPU's but what if I gave the Phase unit some help in maintaining the temps with peltiers or going a stage further Phase + Pelts cooling another Pelt close the the CPU ?
This is what is in my head (Could be something totally barmy) but something I quite fancy trying if deemed potentially workable....
I'm I barking mad ?
Below is basically 1 pelt cooled by Phase with 2 pelt watercooled.
