Gary:
I've been reading this thread with some interest but I don't know what "TEC" is. Can you explain to me?? Thanks for the help.

To go beyond that, you have to turn to the heat sink itself.  Make it
bigger.  Make it Copper.  Give it more and larger fins.  Blow air on it.
Or - if you really want to do it right, use a TEC for active cooling and
make that heat sink really really cold.  Just short of the dew point of
course.  And much more practical than liquid cooling.

TEC's really rock when used properly in this manner.
