That would be the backup plan. The idea is to get better overclocking potential. Even if your heatsink can keep up with the heat output of the card, you can still only go so high. You can go higher if the chip is kept cooler than ambient.

I think Necere's point is that the thermoelectric devices generate also generate their own heat, potentially hurting the cooling potential more than they would help. The reason why you don't see thermoelectric fridges all over, except in commercial locations, is because they're fairly...

I don’t think it will have the best motherboard compatibility. The spacing is pretty close, and any weird ITX boards, like those that have the RAM in a different place, probably wouldn’t fit. Other than that I’d expect most components to fit. Anyway, I’m pretty busy on Monday but I will post...

Well, Necere made a good point in that December is probably too soon. That date is somewhat naïve as it assumes that every aspect of the project goes just perfectly, which naturally has never happened ever. Another potential problem is finding manufactures for production, as obviously our CNCs...

"Email harvesting scam"? Ouch, that's a new one. (Are those even a thing in 2017?) Is there any reason to believe that anyone else's project on this forum right now isn't a scam of some kind? After all, the vast majority of kickstarters are! That's the risk of croudfunding! (Exciting, isn't it?)...

Actually, yes, it does get very loud. That's why the per-fan PWM control is essential. The system backs off once you hit your target temperature. And I doubt it's possible to fit 800W (BTW that figure is not 100% honest. That's how much power the cooling can draw, how much it cools is slightly...

I was actually waiting to see how long it would take for someone to find a smaller case (that's why I put 5L in the title for this forum specifically). I couldn't find any, but I knew one surely must be out there. It is a good thing though, because that shows that people here know their SFF...

Introducing the B-Tech Arctic computer case! At only 5.3 liters of internal volume, it's an utterly tiny ITX case with full-size GPU support! The Arctic case is designed for an accurate "console aesthetic" look with it's glossy plastic exterior construction, ample vent holes, and clean...
