Hi, Ive never TEC cooled before and I'm running water cooling atm. I was in town today and saw a mini fridge in the window of a charity shop. I got it for £3. Ive since stripped it down and have the pelter and a mains adaptor so:

I shouldn't need a second psu?
How do i tell how powerful it is?
Can I use it to cool my rad and/or res rather than put it striate on to my CPU?

thanks for your time

first off, thats WAY to week for even a socket 462
2nd you can run that one on your system psu because its so week
3rd, you need a coldplate between the tec and cpu

Eventually its going to get out, your case isn't air tight.
