I've got all the parts for a water cooling setup, plus I've got a peltier cooler. However, instead of putting the Peltier on the CPU, I'd like to try putting its cold side in contact with the water in the reservoir. So my questions:
How much do I still have to worry about condensation on the water tubes and the water block? The room is in the cellar, so it is fairly cool, and it's also fairly dehumidified.
Also, do aluminum heatsinks corrode underwater? I'd like to attach a heatsink to the cold side to help dissapate the coolness more effectively.
And, at what point to I have to worry about ice crystals forming on the heatsink? Do peltiers tend to get cold enough to do that?
