C533 ppga on a BH6. A constantly evolving project.
Latest is a cooling block made from a brass case siliconed and chemical metalled directly to a 60W peltier. An extra 5 degrees colder. Cooling water has direct contact with TEC hotside.
The water is run outside to a car heater core, with the original fan. CPU temp under load (Seti) on a warm (25 deg) day is 6-8 degrees@2.1v.
Posts at 800Mhz with 2.6v but locks immediately.
Waiting for a -25 degree winter day. :)
Update: Some irritating summer condensation problems lately have caused a spate of insulating attempts. None work terribly well due to the difficulty of getting at the slotket. New approach! Put in another cooling block attached via a small 32W peltier to the original heatsink + fan and put the case covers on for the first time in years. Very effective dehumidifier. Early results are very promising.
