I am building a home theater PC and am trying to figure how to keep it cool at quiet at the same time?
Can you use a peltier cooler attached to a heat sink without a fan or will i fry the system? I am also consider using a 1.5 athlon to run it, and then lower the voltage and clock speed to reduce heat.
It’s primary use will be for playing divx movies and acting as a media server. I don’t want to hear this thing humming alot while I am watching a movie
I considered water cooling, they still seem to require a fan and are very expensive.
Another Idea that I thought of was just custom building a cooler using a heatsink and a small lower db graphics card fan.
What you need to do is go to the two URLs and research your questions. they have the answers and then some.
