Um, there shouldn't be any condensation, and if there was, plan on replacing your components a lot earlier than 6months.

If you install everything properly it should last for as long as you keep the hardware.

you will still need a case fan to circulate moisture inside the case so it doesnt rain in your machine.

My thought, EXACTLY. Well, it looks as if I won't be going TEC on my video card after all. I wonder, tho. Can you buy the Triple evap model, but still only run it on 1 gpu and cpu?

The only phase I have seen has a safety on it. If it doesnt see heat it turns it's self off. This could be different.

I know you can kill that safety tho.

They have some that are just for 1 cpu and 1 gpu...

Yeah, but I was thinking cool 1 card, then buy another later.
