the temps are looking pretty good so far, i can't wait to get this thing ready for some serious benching action.

I must say i'm a little surprised and quite happy with the results so far. I had heard some talk that peltiers were not enough to handle A64's, but -14C is pretty good i think. Anyway, i'm also impressed by the little Aspire 500w "Concord" power supply i have running this thing. It does a very nice job for being only $55.
