Quote from Fonnybone :Ahh, an analogous soul That 6 pack cooler, who makes it ?
The coolers i saw are arond 40L and is made by Igloo if i remember.
The peltier element is probably a cheap industrial version...

I dont remember the name brand ,It was out of one I got from wal-mart,I did get a igloo cooler to replace the one I dismantled,is was 20$ half the price of the one I tore up :P,Good thing about em,at least they come with a heatsink/fan combo

Oh,just found the one I tore up http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3942757

Quote :Fonnybone Ah, this little thing had me wondering like a little boy...Anyone here know how the 'reaction' actually works ?! From what i understand,
one side is hot and the other is cool, the hotter one side, the cooler the other, and vice-versa

Yes,all it is basically is a transistor,one side cold one side hot,Actually the cooler you cant get the hot side the colder the cold side will be.. I took this peltier off of a 6 pack cooler,was in doubt that it would even cool my gpu,I was hopeing it would get it colder than it does,But thats not the case Currently I can run this one off of my computers PS,it runs on 12volts and pulls about 3 amps,Not a problem for a 550 power supply..

Quote :Anarchi-H To dissipate the full 100W+ load, you ideally want a water cooled peltier setup, where the peliter cools the proc, and the water cools the pelt.
Of course; if you are going sub-zero (or close to), with the difference in air temparture around the peltier, you need to use neoprene and silicon sealant to keep condensation at bay, or you'll fry the whole thing.

I was going to attach a water block to the hot side,But didnt want to go through the trouble of all that :P water that condesates is not as harmful as say tap water,Condensation does not contain all the minerals/impurities that tap water does,and is there for not as conductive,I have some good cork tape/sealant stuff,thats what I used all around my cpu cause it sweats some,and was dripping on my video card,the video card the way it is mounted,if the peltier creates a little water,it should just fall to the bottom of the case I did put cork insulator on top of the card though,on the back of the gpu basically..

Just wish this thing would cool more:irked: Think I may have to get on ebay,and get one of those peltier/thermostat setups... These things are really neat to play with,The one I am useing would make ice,but not with a load on it
Anyone use peltier coolers?

For video cards,or cpu's? If so,I would like to see what you have,I attached one to my video card,and used a old heatsink/fan combo to displace the heat the peltier makes,gpu runs anywhere from 80 to 84F (26~28c) and about 100f say in live for speed (38c),My cpu cooling thats a whole nother story,chilled water cooling via phase change system,But I wont get into that now,Heres the video card

Quote from Forbin :Yeah, as I recall, there was a small metal plate on the underside of the CPU, surrounded by the pins. However, we were unable to remove it until we took a screwdriver (or maybe a chisel, I'm not sure), placed the tip of it on the ceramic packaging, and smacked the end of the screwdriver with a hammer. This broke off a large chunk of the packaging (without damaging the core) and we were able to remove the metal plate. You'd be surprised just how fine the wires in there were, too, especially for such relatively old technology.

Well it just plain amaze's me that they can put all those parts in that tiny thing... Maybe I'll go smack one of my old intels to see what I can see :P

Quote from Forbin :A friend of mine and I cracked open a 486 once some years ago, around the time the Athlon (the Slot A version) first came out. The 486 die was about the same size.

Ahh,so there was just a plate over top of it?

Quote from speedfreak227 :i've always wondered.......... if i unlock LFS on my computer then go unlock it on a buddy's computer can we both go online at the same time or will it detect that the same user is online with two accounts?

i hope it checks for this.

Yes you would get username already in use
Ahhh,the ol demo days

in the early demo days,I got so irritated with the idiots,that I would log ip's,Then when a dumb*** came in,and I baned him/kicked w/e,I would take his ip,do a whois on it,and block his whole ip's ip range from my firewall,Just incase he didnt have a dynamic ip,Guess that meant that his whole city coldnt connect to my server,but it sure as hell cut down on idiots,and the server would still fill up... Dont just ban,block ip blocks

Quote from Scawen :No the waste pipes are all plastic, not copper. The one that goes out the wall is just the same colour as copper!

No i don't think we have code enforcement over here hehe, not unless you are a professional. Noobs like me can do what we want!

Must be nice not to have code enforcement up your A** :P,Of course theres not always a need to call code out on all jobs here,Just if you can get away with it or not .. I do electrical heating and air,plumbing,and it seems as if thet are real strict about codes here,I hate it...Nit pickers :P,

Copper colored plastic,wow lol,wonder if I could use that to cheat the code guys,lol...

Quote from Scawen :Woohoo! It works!

Temporary units from old kitchen helping to support the worktop for now, until we make the real cupboards and the nice supports for the front of the worktop. Rear and sides are supported by batons.

That would not pass code requirements where I live lol.. :P The pvc into copper like that,Do yall have code enforcement over there?? :P
