too bad this technology got canned... too expensive to use and proved to not be much better than watercooling.

then you have to cool and power the pelt.. and at more cost. at this point youre better off with water or just plain air.
the problem i think they had with the metal is it wasnt giving up enough heat due to being a metal. it conducted heat better than the copper tube and fins and thus stayed hot. it would need a very large radiator to dissapate the heat in that case. the other problem is very high costs.
