You should look into a 437 watt pelt.
What cooling do you have?

You have to have a separate power supply to use a peltier. I don't know if your water block will be good enough for a peltier.

It all depends on what temps you are aiming for.
437w peltier would be the minimum for a heavily overclocked CPU. Note that you won't be constantly using 437w of power because peltiers run more efficient at less than their rated maximum power/voltage. I ran a 437w peltier on my X2 3800+ running at 2.5Ghz, and giving the peltier 13.5v produced -8°C or so load temps.
If you just need to lower your temps a bit you can just build a better wc loop. But if you still want a peltier, get the 437w module and feed it 5 or so volts. I did that and my load temps were ~30°C and everything was completely silent.
You'll need a coldplate and a large enough waterblock to cover the entire module. That's really the only tough part when trying to build a TEC. PM Burn and he can give you Devin's email, the designer of the almighty Arctic Web 437w TEC.
Edit: This post shows some pics of my watercooling loop and TEC setup.

temps i am aming for is about around 50c full load @ 3,6ghz
i refuse to give upp before i can have my ram atleast stock 800mhz
4ghz+ have to wait til i build my next pc so i can push this one farther
and still have pc to play with when it fries
![]()
(edit)
btw a new watercolling setup is close to not going to happen before i build a new system (too expensive my system is 5000$+as is. im getting poor here)
a tec and a psu for that is way cheeper and i dont see on it as a waste of cash as it can get me far higer on oc than just a new water system
peltier 240watt, would i need a better waterblock if i doo that one, or should the one i have be sufisient?
nvm but tnx all for u'r help
i've been loocking into it a bit more and
doing a tec setup will be soo overkill
couse of the rest of the system going on water too i would need pelts all over or the rest of my system would be to hot, and doing that i would need a car engine radiator and that would just mess up the hole loock and loocks are important as i hafto stare at the freaking thing all day

maby one day i'l buy a wapochill and put in the case (have room for it, the lian-li cube case is a genius case)

How power much can the Tuniq dissapate? What voltage/wattage will you be running your TEC?
