Hey guys, after reading the Freezone Elite x2 Build it got me thinking . . . I need my loop colder.
It runs fine now, but I have been thinking about TEC cooling for some time now and this seems like a good way to go be it expensive. But, that is ok with me. Although, if some other system can accomplish my goals cheaper, then that is great too.
I don't want the system to cool to freezing temps or below the dew point because I don't really want to deal with insulating the motherboard and what not. I just want my cpu colder.
Right now it idles at about 41c and after a few hours of gaming it gets to about 49c.
So, this is what I was thinking. I would have my northbridge and GPU on a separate loop with regular liquid cooling and all and just the CPU on the Boreas (I have an i7 920 @ 4.2). Would that be too much heat for it or would it be fine? If it was too much heat then I was thinking about giving it a new pump and throwing in a radiator into the loop after the CPU.
What do you guys think? Thanks!
