Gideontech heeft een handleiding voor peltier overclocking online gezet. In het uitgebreide artikel, dat alles behandelt van de benodigde stroom tot het gebruik van coldplates, wordt peltier overclocking bereikbaar voor de newbies op dit gebied. Hieronder een stukje over de isolatie:
Whenever you cool something below the ambient temperature, you always have to worry about condensation, and since your using a peltier you have to worry even more since your CPU can go below 0ºC. Since we don’t wont to invite water into our computers to fry our components there are a few simple steps that we can take to avoid, or at least fight off condensation.
Seal your peltier unit and copper cold plate (I’ll explain what this is later in the article) in CLOSED cell foam or a neoprene. The closed cell foam or neoprene seals your processor and peltier from outside air that way you don’t have condensation next or close to the cpu.
Also take a piece of closed cell foam or a neoprene and put in the middle of the socket, this insulates the backside of the cpu from out side air that may get in and condensate on the backside of the cpu.
