Peltier Condensation Prevention Guide
 

Conventional methods for the unconventional process of peltier cooling a processor have always included insulation. How about a method with only minimal insulation and none around the actual processor. Well its just been done! How will peltier cooling change now? Read Jason's article to find out how!

Nice to see someone trying new things!
 

...and here I thought the inventors and innovators all turned to "lazy" overclocking with all the off-the-shelf stuff available now -- Congrats!

Very interesting idea--you should talk to Dennis at DangerDen about this; I'm sure he'd be interested.

Very Nice
 

Good s*** :clap:
Mean idea, im keen to do sumpn simmilar to mine now, itll realy help coz my silverprop block has no overhang on the socket which it makes it hard to insulate. I wanna get on to it now but im gonna have to wait a month or so for some parts (my student budget) so when i get all that sorted ill try it out and maybe throw some pics up of my success (or failure as the case may be).

How did you get the air out?

y not use artic sliver ceramic?
it's non conductive or captive.
or just use the stuff vaporchill use?
some sort of silicon paste.

Heat formed shroud
 

Anyone know of a material you could heat form rather than cut and glue?

Wouold be great if the container was seamless.

Shroud
 

What im gonna do is go looking in shops for a container the right size and use that, itll mean u get a nice seamless finish but it wont be 100% DIY, dunno if ur finiky bout things like that :) + i dont imagine itll set u back any more then you'd spend on a DIY shroud (unless u alread have the parts :P)

Be careful if you use the silicone to bond the container, its not so easy to remove. A flexible rubber or easily removable seal is better.

Heat
 

Hi Jason, i was just wondering what wattage pelt you were using and how hot did the air inside the container get???

Hi,
You might think about installing a one way check valve , and using a
vacume pump with gage. This would help remove air from inside , and also let you know if theres any air leaks. As mentioned by Jason
using a good rubber seal, because some silicones will cause corrsions.
??? what do you think. :wavey:
