Im thinking about going into a peltier solution and I was wondering if i even had enough power left in my psu (so to speak...i know its incorrect).


6 fans (including chipset)
1 sata hd
OCed 7950gt
OCed opty 165
2gb ddr 500 OCed
dfi ultra d
Swiftech mp655 (i think) pump
dvd+-rw
sound card pci
tv tuner pcie x1
wireless networking pci

antec truepower 550 w

I was thinking about using either a 72watt something else.
 
Just remember with pelts, you have to have a good bit above the wattage of your cpu, and for your wc to be able to handle it. In the case of a prescott (120w), you'd want probubly about a 175 or so, which means your wc has to handle 295w of heat.

If you're dead set on the pelt idea, try a meanwell pelt-psu. With that much hardware, I wouldn't try adding a very power consuming pelt.
