Where can i get a peltier?

hi, i want to have a peltier so it will help cool my cpu. i have a q6600 that is watercooled. the problem is that i have no idea where to get the peltier, cold sink, insulation, dielectric grease etc... i tried to look on google but with no sucess.

If someone could post some links to some place where i could get them from that would be great. And i dont know what a good peltier is, but i do know how to put the whole system together.

thanks in advance

Ebay is your best bet tbh. They are a bit hard to come by anywhere else

I've heard paying a little extra is worth it with peltiers, the cheap ones tend to burn out quite quick. But, as Jim said, Ebay is your best bet.

i have done a quick estimate of around £50 to set up the peltier. is it really worth it? or is it too much hassle?
