Alright, I uploaded the changes that I have made so far. I was going to wait until I was finished before submitting them, but there are some severe storms nearby and I didnt want to risk loosing what I had done.

I'm open to comments on what I have so far as well, but keep in mind that not everything is completed yet.

This post is the first time I've read of TEC cooling and I am now really interested in it as I was looking into water cooling. I'm a bit confused about some of the TEC kits available though. All in all, thanks!

I may make a list similar to ceewi, noting some of the popular brands and some of the ones known to be of poor quality.

They make heatsink and fan based TEC coolers, and they work pretty well. Heres one from frozencpu.com

I looked to be a mod when I joined up and then slowly over time I just grown away from it. I saw what kinda crap they had to put up with... Just wait until 1500 posts and then think back.
