The Peltier element itself is silent but you will need active cooling to cool the element - unless it's really small.

Don't use active cooling and all of a sudden there won't be any more cool and hot sides in the peltier unit, heh, so you can burn your CPU in no time
 . Read the complete article and you will better understand how it works, that was the idea of pointing you there. |
