60mm cold plate where are you!

Ace123 · 09-February-06, 05:16 PM

I have a GIGANTIC peltier than is going to require a large cold plate. I was an idiot and got a 40mm cold plate not measuring first...... its not even close.... I cant find ANYWHERE that is selling 60mm cold plates. you can imagine my frustration. Anyone know where i can get one of these?

From my understanding, a cold plate is just a nicely shaped copper block that fits between the CPU and peltier (I think that's it, but I may be wrong). I don't know if there are any machining places around you but I am sure you could get one made up pretty easily. I don't know if that helps, but I hope it does.

All a cold plate is, is a slab of copper.

Ive heard people making their own copper sheet out of copper pipes (They cut it down the middle and flaten the thing out)...

I usually make my own from copper plate(scrapyard), but I found a 40x40mm for you .
I'll try to find a 60mm(2" 3/8" inches) and post it.
