On-CPU Peltiers From AMD?

Posted by timothy on from the speculatoryism dept.

Hack Jandy writes "Remember those people who lived on the edge and put peltiers between their CPU and heatsink (or your favorite beverage)? A peltier is a devices that gets cold on one side and warm on the other when an electrical current passes through it. It looks like there is talk that AMD will actually incorporate some of these devices on the CPU according to Xbitlabs. AMD already incorporates some degree of the peltier effect with it's Silicon on Insulator."

    It's is the contracted form of it is. So let try it in the current context:

    • ...with it is Silicon on Insulator.

    Does not look so good, does it ? Let's try the other form:

    • ...with its Silicon on Insulator.

    Right here... much better :)
