OK I wont!!! thanks for the heads up too! Really not risk it, that's why I asked!!

So I drew up a little basic paint picture. Basically what I have in mind for setting up a 3 TEC cooling system with 2 loops and about 390w of chilling power, 130w of which will be right on the Cpu, or on the cold plate over the cpu rather.

I've ordered a 2 pack 12715 TECs (already have 2 of them)

Also ordered a 1 Kilo Bar of Pure .9995 Copper Bullion for a cold plate on the Cpu.
The dimensions are 5 1/4" x 2 3/4" x 1/2 ". I needed to find between 1/4" and 1/2" think bar of the purest copper for best heat dissipation on that Cpu.

The cold plate also need to be slightly bigger, but not bigger than the water block surface. I think the GTZ block looks to be around 45mm-50mm at the bottom, but having the bar makes it easy so I can make the block w/e size I need.

I would have went with Silve Bullion, but I don't have your guys's moneys
______________________________Just kidding there. ^^

Here's an example of what I'd like to try. notice how there's 2 TECs on the Chilling block. Well...... that's how much it takes to get water cold fast. In reality I should use 2 or 3 chiller blocks, but that get's into using ton's of power, may as well go SS at that point....

Air cooler on each hot side water block FTW. I only drew the one.

Dig it?
