You probably know something about the Peltier effect where an electric current moves heat from one side of a plate to the other. The hot side of the plate needs at the minimum a very good air cooler and better yet effective water cooling. I'm no expert but putting a PC in a high heat, high humidity environment seems like a recipe for disaster. You have to not only ensure that it will not short out from condensation and wet fingers but keep it from over heating. Have you got an unused office frig that you can install into? Good luck and I'd be interested in how you manage to do it.

need cooler air to make the unit function?

I have a situation where I need to put a computer or DVR in a pool house
that is about 120 or so... I was wondering if a pelteir or water cooling
would work in this kind of extremes..
