i think for now im just gonnna buy a swiftech mpc600, the swiftech teced block for both my cpu and gpu, 1/2 tygon tubing, HE120.3 radiotor, 3 120mm 76cfm fans (only 28dba), 5.25 resiovior, 176 watt peltier (to replace the 80 watt peltier for my gpu), hose clamps, meanwell s320 (if s350 is out im getting that then)...

Did i forget anything???


Where's the cheapest place to get the tygon tubing, and a 176 watt peltier?

With the current setup I have now I will be able to at least bring my comp back and forth from my dorm to my house, right?

I'm currently working on a prototype tec waterblock that uses a 360 watt pelt and a 600 watt ps. It will be a month or so till I can test it out though. I'll report back then when I know the results.

What supplier did you use for the 360?

Yes you need a pump relay switch, or how else is it going to start. You definately want to start it right when your computer starts.

And as far as the supplier of the 360watt pelt, I'm afraid I'll have to keep that quiet for now. But maybe you'll find out somehow? Who knows. I plan on selling my product, so you see, it's a hush-hush thing for now.

Also, I bought one of those fancy relays from a computer oc store on the net. Later I found a relay at Fry's that does the same thing for less. Just get a 12v relay that's rated at 120v on the load side. Mine works just fine.

I asked the supplier, because I have heard of '360w' peltiers in the past, and they turned out to be 226w units.

This is because while a 226w peltier has a QMax of 226w, it has a power rating of 360w.

does the mcp600 rev 2 come with a pump relay switch?

I worded that wrong. I didnt ask the supplier. That should have been:

"I asked ABOUT the supplier"

So they still could be 360w peltiers. Why are you hiding this information? You certainly don't have exclusive rights to these peltiers, since they are probably Marlow or Kryotherm, or one of the other major dealers, and all you have to do is look through their sites.

So please dont act like you are about to corner the market on a product you neither manufacturer or distribute, no one is going to buy in to that or think that it is special.

wait the mcp 600 uses a molex connector for power, so i dont even need a pump relay switch, right?
