I can only dream of having a chiller at my place. The electrical bill will result in my parents nagging on me. I hope to have one when my house is ready though

Update, after some fine tunning and driven by 5V, I am able to get 22C too when ran 100% of the time. So now the power consumption is 20W. I am on and off it at every 15 min, and getting 24 to 25.0C, with average power rating of just 10W.

biljas,
Will take for picture if I unassemble it, this time, I didnt take step by step pictures. A TEM is about $20.

lukeskwr,
Yes, but CPU heatsink can cool down to lowest is room temperature, TEM can cool down below room temperature.
Will be waiting for ur pics bro.

Can, but the waterblock needs to be solid aluminium as any copper will kill your shrimps and fishes.
