And what does a pelt cost? Can i just plug it in my chieftech PSU, or will an aditional PSU be necessary?

Loads of thanks, when this question is answered, i won't disturb u guys no more.

If you want tio cool your cpu with a pelt, watrecooling is recommended to put the heat from te pelt + the heat from your cpu away.

ex.

cpu = 80 watt ?
pelt should be double, as in 160 watt.

Total heat production = almost 250 watt. No aircooling can put that away. So your cpu will fry :).

and for the more powerfull pelts (160 watt, 226 watt) you need an additional PSU. Some heavy pelts, 226 watt, use 24 V so and onther and expensice PSU is needed.

Here you can see some prices @loveno
