Peltier cooling or liquid cooling?

[shadow32]

I have FX 8350 and HD 7850.

what would be cheaper to use to cool them?

also the 8350 gets up to 62 deg. when playing BF3

well, where is the heat from the peltier going to go?

they basically triple the heat output they're cooling. so a 125TDP cpu will now basically be a 375 TDP item to cool. that will superheat the inside of your case if you can't get it out of there. A peltier basically requires a robust custom liquid cooling system just to transition the heat out of the case.

the cheapest solution would be to get a h80i. it's about the strongest and smallest closed loop water cooler you can get... of course it comes with it's own problems (no airflow over the board) so you might want an NH-D14 instead. of if you just want something better then the stock cooler, get a hyper evo 212

Peltiers are a lot of work to get right, wouldn't even bother going down this route unless you really know what your doing.
Water cooling would be easier and cheaper (depends on your implementation of Peltiers I guess) though still isnt cheap or easy.

I get the impression your not too knowledgeable on cooling solutions. If your running a stock air cooler, something like a 212 EVO would be the best move rather than a more extreme solution.

You're at 62c now?, unless you have serious overclocking intentions a high end air cooling solution should handle the FX 8350, what are you cooling the CPU with now?
