well here is my sample for my v5 5500 peltier(one of them, there is 2) runs very cool, the blue plastic top right is shrinkwrap for the wires(no hairdryer, need to barrow one) the clear fan has blue led and pushes twice the air as the 3dfx one so up top it went, the 3dfx one works well where it is pushing the air out the back of heatsink and it faces my case window

another peltier heatsink for v5, this one works very well because of size of heatsink.

I watercooled my Voodoo 2 cards, which completely solved any heat problems.
If you want to use a peltier, then watercooling is the way to go.
That way you can make the heatsink as large as you like, and place it outside of the case, which is the best place for it.
In my computer the processor, chipset, AGP graphics card, mobo power regulators and afore mentioned Voodoos are all water cooled.
My processors temperature monitor never registers more than 10-15 degres C above ambient, and the radiator is passively cooled.
The noisiest thing in my computer is the Antec 480W truepower 'so called' silent power supply (huh!).
That's getting watercooled soon, aswell!

I wish to keep it simple, this is for a one shot overclock and I do not wish to complicate needlessly.
A single Peltier will do without breaking a sweat for a pair of overclocked Voodoo Grpahics chips.

with just that little heatsink the peltier feels like a can of soda outta the fridge, plenty cold for a voodoo card

@TM30 - be sure your fly is zipped when you're near that thing...
...or you'll end up with a popsickle!
ROFL!
