Thermoelectric Cooling is a Bad Idea

im having fun! thanks for asking linus.
I know that does not have to do anything with the video, but I have been watching Scrapyard Wars for the past days and I might have an idea for season 8. I don't know if you want to continue the series but… My idea is that the teams have to be in another country, where the English is not a regional language and buy the parts from there. Thank you in forward for taking my idea for a potential theme of Scrapyard Wars season 8.
Linus can you make a cooler out of a rock?
cool video
Can you get me a gaming setup plz
You had the Peltier units upside-down. Do you trust the cheap heat-pipe cooler to work well like that???
Even wicking heat-pipes won't like being completely the wrong way up.
Many of those eBay Peltiers (assembled or just the chip) are not the power they state. I bought a 15-amp one and it was actually 3-amp and another was 8-amp.

Why is this idea just now coming back? Cool-IT systems had an amazing product almost 10 (wow maybe even 15?) years back with the FreeZone and Boreas (with or without the MTEC or Silverstone case). That was when Pentium Ds were showing us how to properly heat rooms.
I am still running my same look with 2010 with my Boreas and MTEC in the SilverStone case. The MTEC control can be a bit wonky, but that is easy to fix or bypass.
If I remember right, what killed the idea for Cool-it was not the TEC, it was subpar pump manufacturing by a vendor. No one wants blue water goo dripping on their Video card.
Pfft I just look at my cpu and it cools down. Then I order a well done steak because reality is for the hippocampus.
I don't know why, but I love the cheesy product placement ads just randomly inserted.
0:50 who else thought he was going to say "But what's even cooler, is today's video sponsor" lol
Alex is the ultimate redstone engineer
The Verge has never clicked on a video faster.
The 500 watt unit should be interesting
How can we cool a cpu with the most energy used?
he Linus, i have a very old HP Pavilion. so i hope you react on this comment, and say: i will buildd you a brandd new pc. Hope you react love your vid btw 🙂
But would it work on an X570 chipset so the fan could be ditched?
They didn't work on the P4 and they are still crap (for cooling CPU's)
The black bar annoyed me
need to put the tec coolers inline after the radiator….
Bad Cooling Idea: Use a vortex tube cooler for cooling your PC, requiring you to run an air compressor to cool your PC
