[Zepper]

Boy, I hope they some up with a new name for it before it hits the States - only a Brit could love the one it has now...

Sytrin Nextherm

It seems like a good idea at first, but it's been done.

That's not the same idea at all. The Newtherm uses a peltier for cooling, unlike the Vapochill units.
But I'll have to agree that "it" (peltier cooling), has been done before. 🙂

Meh, just buy a normal air conditioner and stick it in your case. 😛

or you could just get one of those misting fans. That would work, right? 🙂

hehe only if you use salt water to mist it w/ 😀

of course you could mist your components with non conductive oils..and have a collection plat in the bottom that goes back into the system...it would be cool but i would not want to work on it.

BTW ive seen whole mobo's submerged in fisktanks with non conductive liquids....you could just do that

Distilled water is non-conductive. 😀

You could use some of that $200/gallon Cray juice.

intersting.. .

Thermalright or thermaltake (forget which) sells pretty much the same thing for $75. You would need a duct for the cpu though, the thing dumps all the heat into the case.
Found a review link. I know I saw this thing for $75 somewhere...

So they don't work very well?

I didn't get any manuals with them. I connected them the way that seemed proper to me.
For some reason the peltier wasn't getting cool. Without the manual, I didn't spend any time messing with them.
