You live next to a beach in Hawaii and you spend your time on "epic WoW sessions" ?!
When there's no surf or wind, yeah
Otherwise no matter what you do if you use air cooling you are just accelerating the air right through it making things worse.
Well, I have yet to hear a better argument for watercooling. Very interesting. However, I would imagine that the radiator would still be a problem. I have never watercooled, but isn't there a big metal thing that sticks out of your case has to be exposed to the air? And isn't there usually a fan on it?
That said, replacing a radiator is probably cheaper than replacing a graphics card. And I can try spraying things on the radiator to try to rust-proof it. I wonder if the spray-on zinc layer would affect the cooling performance.
This might sound ridiculous but seeing suggestions for a dehumidifier and you replying there wouldn't be any possibility that it would work, I came up with this "doo-hickey" out of the blue.
Wow! I just signed up for [H]ard|Forum after lurking for awhile, and I have to say I've gotten better responses from my first post that I have at all on any other online forum. You guys rock!
This is a very cool idea. I wish I had a garage and a set of tools to make things like this. I could probably create a model in some CAD program and send it to a plexi shop to have it fabricated. Also, I know the peltier blocks would collect a LOT of moisture, because whenever I take a can of soda out of the fridge it completely soaks whatever surface I put it on by pulling the moisture out of the air.
