I'm planning on making a peltier system that is more portable than some of those we have previously seen. Possibly, it will have only one power supply. *all power supplies used will be ATX and adapted as needed for the peltiers*

The case will be custom fabricated by myself out of extruded plexiglass with custom mounts and apratures to facilitate he peltier cooling.

Specs:

2x 500w atx PSU (Atrix)
Abit uGuru KV8Pro mainboard
Sempron palermo 3400+

Abit RX800 vGuru (AGP video card)

2x 40mm Marlow TEC (only 78w,) until i find better TECs
Heatsink/fan combos? Im thinking:
blue orb II on top of CPU TEC
Zalman VF900cu on top of GPU TEC
Air pipes leading outside of case?

Here is a diagram with out cooling or power connections of the initial case design. (add fans, decide about HDD, cooling mehtod, trying to keep it portable and simple to set up)

Before I can continue, I need an opinionon ram...

Which Ram wouldbe best to overclock with the 3400+ Palermo?!!?!

It needs to be able to suit an overclock of the processor from 2000mhz to 3000mhz or so.

Edit: I have pics!!!

Cool, thats sweet that you got results with your cpu

I tried my 80w long ago with a stock x850 cooler and longer screws; it didn't quite work out....

if its below ambient, condensation is gonna occur, just incase you havent insulated it yet

You are going to be in big trouble with temps when you run a load on it, especially when you play with Vcore. You can quite often get worse temps if the modules can not pump the heat.

Great work otherwise

If the humidity is 100%, then you're right. Else not always.

I plan on insulating it heavily.

I have been having some problems with the GPU not pumping heat, but I changed the thermal paste and it seems fine.

I also have 2 more TECs that I can use to cool the primary ones. With those on there, there should be no problems pulling heat off of the chip.

Hey man...

Seeing as how we got the same TEC...

I just slapped it ontop of my venice and then the A64 FREEZER PRO ontop of that... Temps are cool. I put it between my fingers for 2 seconds and it felt like I was holding a piece of ice on one side... @2.67Ghz . idle is 15*C. At times it is lower, but I'm giving an average.

EDIT: Oh, and I followed your directions and used the power connector instead of opening up my PSU :P

Here's a little diagram

Your trying to get a S754 Sempy to 3Ghz?!?!?

I say http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231047
or

prices aren't too shabby either

so this is having hardware problems. It was stable for about 3 hours and now it seems to be working fine for a while then shutting down and giving me a hardware issue on restart.

Update soon
