While that product may be fine for the average consumer, custom water cooling solutions are the way to go for those who are more serious about their cooling demands. However, things start to get really interesting when words like "thermoelectric" and "Peltier" are tossed around certain forums. There's nothing quite like a good H20 vs TEC debate to get the blood pumping and bring out the passion in enthusiasts. Well, today we've decided to tackle that debate head-on. We're going to pit one of the pre-eminent thermoelectric cooling solutions, the CoolIT Freezone Elite, straight up against a custom water cooling kit, both on a juiced-up Quad Core CPU.

First we'll delve into the technology behind the Freezone Elite, take a good look at it, and then run it through some paces before we unleash it in the Title Match against a beefy Swiftech water setup. Oh, we can hear the trash talking already, and boy do we love this stuff.
