Hi guys,

As of my understanding you can run phase cooling for 24/7 as long as you insulate your board, correct?

If so, is there any "cheap" machines out there in Europe. (Single phased)

It was mostly intended for benching purposes.

It would just be a bonus if it could run for 24/7.

I would never leave my pc with those temps without keeping an eye on it wink.gif

Ohh and thanks by the way smile.gif

24x7 is fine so long as you are well insulated and your mobo isnt set to auto restart on a powerfail.

I run mine 24/7 ( Used a 240w gray mole single stage unit ) and it was fine...

The only real problem you have is that on low loads there's not a lot of heat generated to keep the frost in check so depending on the unit and moisture content in the atmosphere you could get quite a build up of frost, that is why I always disabled C1E or any form of speed step to try and increase the heat generated on low loads and idle.

And as long as you take your time and insulate properly you wont have any problems.
