imo, the whole COD franchise peaked somewhere between 'No Russian' and fighting a war in the streets of Washington DC. In short, everything after MW2 has been devoid of any creative merit.

Here's my recommendation:
Smaller HDD
Add 64 or 128gb SSD (trust me on this one, SSDs will change your life)
Don't spend more than $60 on RAM
Don't get a power supply >600watts; 520W at around ~60-70$ is good
Whaat, you don't need 10C CPU temps to watch netflix?
You used to be cool, man.

For reference an 8000 BTU compressor consumes around 600watts.
The typical application of a TEC would be to sandwich it between your processor and waterblock, putting the TECs on your radiator makes 0 practical sense.
