I’m quite happy to watch you play with this hardware. It’s great to know what’s possible. For my part, even if I came up with the money for such a rig, I have no workloads to justify it.

@enlightendbel

Жыл бұрын

There are no workloads that justify it. You're still only getting a couple 100 extra Mhz out of the CPU for a 500$ pricetag. If you need performance, that 500$ together with a slight toning down of the initial pricetag of a 13900, buys you extra hardware that provides direct performance without the cooling. Like a whole second system. With multithreading finally being a mainstream thing, practically every task can be split up among multiple systems. So when it comes to workhorse systems, this is never worth it. Even if you have this specific task where the time it takes to queue up a spread task takes longer than running it locally, your workflow either needs improvement or the few 100Mhz together with the 500$ pricetag isn't anywhere near a speedup enough to make much of a real difference. But not everything has to have a clear price/performance advantage, buying something just for having it is perfectly OK. And who knows, by people buying this, the usage of this kind of tech may seep into the general market improving performance across the board.

Thanks for that previous 13900k power limit video. I used it as a baseline to look at tweaking mine, I ended up sticking to 280w for a short PL2, and then down to 220w for PL1 if there's a sustained load, with a core clock offset of -0.040v. The 280w setting loses less than 4% performance but isn't hitting 100c any more, and the 220w setting is only about 8% less performance but practically halved power usage at load.

Tuning is key really. I recommend just finding the lowest voltage you can use while having the least amount of power consumption possible. I have my 13900KF OCed to 5.8Ghz P-Cores, 4.5 E-Cores, and 5.1Ghz cache, and DDR5 7600. My max power consumption in R23 is 260 watts peak after 30 minutes still scoring over 43,000. Let that sink in for a second. It’s crazy. Yes my chip is amazing for one. But still, the auto voltages are a bit heavy honestly. If I ram my CPU stock with auto voltages it’s like 311 watts in R23. It doesn’t make sense that I can overclock it with a fixed voltage and consume 50 less watts while Running faster. Leave it stock set a fixed V-Core and start knocking off voltage slowly bit by bit. I can squeeze out a full bore 13900K performance inside of about 220+ watts. No need to take away frequency at all.

Running multiple peltier modules in an adjacent ("parallel") configuration like that is actually a really good idea, because TEC efficiency goes up (quite substantially in fact) as its load goes down (with a peak at 15-40% depending on your temperature delta). Running multiple higher-rated units in tandem at lighter load will result in less wasted power operating the TECs (and less excess heat to get rid of) with the only downside being the extra cost of buying more modules and the physical space they take up. In fact, a TEC running at its optimum point at a temperature delta of say 10c can actually have a coefficient of performance over 3:1, comaparable with compressor-driven heat pumps like air conditioners. For something that achieves a CoP of 0.5:1 or worse in "typical" use-cases, this is quite notable!

I remember back in the day using a Peltier cooler ... it was amazing just turning it on and holding it between two fingers and one getting hot, and one cold, really really fast. It was just the cooler, get it upside down when putting it in and your cpu was potentially toast as you applied the hot side ! I got some good results but my cooling was not good enough even in those days to take away the wattage of the cooler and the cpu. And it was a lot less watts in those days. This is a good cooler !

beautiful video with lots of great information, im waiting on your updated 13900k software to make my purchase. waiting for the final software

This does seem like a really smart TEC implementation. With a couple more improvements (software, fitment) I'd be tempted to try one eventually. Loved the brave little pump. 🤣

Finally, a use for your stockpile of stock box coolers.

Would have loved to seen a multi-core run to see how it holds up with all cores going full blast. Many of my workloads use all cores and I'd like to get an idea if this product is worth it to me to overclock my 13900k. Right now, I hit 100C+ on 4 cores on a Cinebench R23 run with an Arctic Freezer II 420. I had to undervolt the chip to get the heat down, which means I cannot overclock.

So you ran it without the pump and fan wires attached to the proper points? Or that was just a test on the second pc? It wasn’t bypassed in the final configuration?

Awesome video!

Enjoyed it, one question though when you mention the TEK of 210W can't cool the 300W CPU. The way I understand it, the power consumption of a TEK is proportional to the deltaT across the element and not directly the heat load. So it's not just the capacity of the TEK power consumption, it's also related to the capacity of the heatsink to transfer the total load, not just TEK Power = Load Power. So if 210W can generate a delta T of 30°C across the TEK, and your goal is 15°C on the cold side, then as long as your waterblock can hold the hot side to

Fun, interesting video on something I was not aware of existing. Besides cats dropping things, they often have static electricity. At least in my experience. I like to see your cats in videos though.

What I do and have done for a while is I have the radiator outside, soldered the fans onto a few ethernet cat 6 S/FTP cables, and pump the liquid straight from the blocks and out. But I really should delid the CPU, as that's my largest limitation, as well as a quite mid-tier motherboard. Never been able to thermal-throttle my GPU, have yet to shunt-mod it. The components are quite aged by now though. But since ambient outside during winter is subzero, and during summer quite high, there's quite some variance. Thanks to very loud fans and the fact I only have two of them, I can power them from the mobo, set the fan curve appropriate to the temperature of the CPU and it's all fine. But recently I pushed voltage up and now my CPU can sit at 99°C while my GPU is only at 20~30°C - both being loaded nearly to the limit. I hope delidding w/ LM will help better transfer heat from the CPU to the block. But that's just one way to solve it. A very budget oriented one to get the most out of a unbalanced 2016-era setup.

Great video!! What is that thing on the GPU power connector?

A friend of mine use peltier cooler some 20 years ago... it was hooked up to a 200l reservoir outside hes house

I could never afford this stuff, so its great to see that it exists and what it is capable of... THANK YOU!

Genius 👍

I believe the first commercial CPU peltier cooler was used in the early 1990s to cool a PowerMac 8100 CPU. That design was short lived as the flaw was the formation of condensation. Apple's solution at the time was to swap out the peltier with a traditional heatsink and fan.

how much power is the TEC pulling during these tests? Is this safe to run in cryo mode 24/7 on a workstation or is this just a fancy XOC thing to get the benchmarks?

Thanks 😎 🤙 🦅

Would love to see you try to make the "ultimate" peltier cooler, by having 2 water loops one cold and one hot, allowing you to have more peltiers and either getting even more cooling or having each being at its most efficient point. Cold loop: cpu water block, pump, and peltier cold side block. the hardest part would be making a pair of custom water blocks for the peltiers. hot side: peltier hot side block, pump and radiators.

Back when we were trying to oc another hot CPU, the dual-cored Pentium-D, I slapped a 100w pelt on top of a copper waterblock and cooled that with a Thermaltake SLK800. The advantages being that it allowed the watercooling to function normally, did not require the peltier to be running all the time, and allowed a lower power tec to assist in cooling without running into that wattage cooling wall. Others did similar things with pelts as inline waterchillers, which can be a simple as a second waterblock paired to a tec and cooled by a second watercooling/radiator setup or just large hsf/block of alluminium. It's funny to remember that the Pentium-D was only like 130w and got all that bad press anyways.

Water chillers are available for under $400 which are more power efficient than peltier systems and can easily supply water at temperatures in the 0 C range or for more $s even lower. You may have to worry about condensation on the tubing, but a little insulation provides an easy fix. Adding a chiller to a loop does require a little DIY but is not a complicated build.

Very good cat video, liked.

I have bought the cryo cooler, but unsure how the controls are working in general. When the fans and the pump is plugged into the system is that merely a safety feature for not burning the TEC or does the software let you control the pump and fan speed? Furthermore, I have a temp header on the MOBO, which I'm planing on using as a secondary security measure, but not sure how to go about it? What kind of controls would you recommend or what are you using?

Any improvements on the rubber gasket? I have the Z790 Extreme and contemplating purchase but I won't if there isnt a proper condensation solution in place

What is the power consumption of the cooler itself? And what is the maximum load for the tec itself? Would it be overwhelmed under an all core load?

I think with even a fraction of that aggravation that you had to endure, I would just simply port a nozzle of a portable AC unit into a case. 17° C (~63° F) is in range of one of those portable units and as a side benefit it has enough cooling capacity to remove all the heat from both the PC and room.

Thing about TEC I learned from astronomy is that they can freeze surrounding air to -40 and if this air dispates are the case it might cause frost and even freeze the coolant

The great thing about this type of cooler, in my opinion, is that the hot side of the Peltier element can get hotter than the CPU, heating the coolant to a higher temperature than the CPU would at a given load. This makes the coolant more efficient at cooling, and the cold side of the Peltier only gets proportionally colder. So you can have liquid cooling efficiency normally given by a 60-degree delta, even when your CPU is below room temperature. It's almost like a heat pump for computers, without the noise!

Is the bottom of the block already sanded flat? I found a 200mhz gain on my old 2.4ghz Athlon x2 by sanding both CPU and cooler flat by using a window as my base for the wet-sandpaper (I maxed out at 3.5ghz on air stable enough to run 3Dmark and play games). I used gasoline instead of water when sanding down the CPU, as it evaporates afterwards, then cleaned up any remaining particles with coffee-filter since coffee-filters don't leave anything behind. PS: with perfectly flat CPU and cooler the CPU will stick to the cooler all by itself because of molecular interactions, so no paste needed. Normally the CPU will stick out farther around the edges so as soon as you sand your CPU enough to take off the center writing you're golden.

I used a Peltier on a Celeron II many years ago. I exceeded 50% on the overclock.

that is really neat stuff, It is kind of disappointing it has to run the fan and pump speed sensors though as a MoRa is the perfect radiator for this kind of heat load. Especially in a fully water cooled system where it would probably also have that GPU. That radiator can handle over 1000W afaik. Also got a chuckle in having to take the CPU away from the cat.
