| The peliters I am using are from a very old
Ice Cooler from the early 80s(I found an ad for the cooler!). I don't know
the wattage on them but I would guess between 30-40 watts because they
are 4 amp 12-14 volt peliters. I'm also guessing they are 30mm units and
are almost the exact size of the center of my K6 metal cap. They get hella
cold when I tested them. I'm gonna try and get a 40mm
unit with a higher wattage because I don't believe the current units are
able to take the heat away under heavy load. Update - I've ditched the peliters as they couldn't handle the heavy load of the CPU, plus they broke since they were a good 20 years old. But I will get another one as the temp at 2.6v is quite high and I'd like to lower it to 2.4-2.5 at 600 or higher instead. Plus my feet don't like being cold. |
When you're using peliters, you better make sure you have proper cooling and enough power to power them, luckly these aren't that powerful, but I picked up a 300WATT powersupply recently to handle the new peliter I'm gonna try and put in the setup. |
