Not sure on load temps I am testing my 2900pro first. So far testing at 928MHz, 1.3v. Load has not gone above 40c. This is lower than my idle temp on air, at a lower speed and lower voltage. This owns, very much so.

We still need a picture of the Pro Mount in action... :p:
Bump! :D
What's up with petra's . That is the most consistently out of stock store I have ever seen. People here say support petra's but I always have to buy somewhere else because petra's is out of stock.Quote:

i think maybe my mainboard is to blame for such a bad time with this mount so far - i have a BFG 680i sli (nvidia reference design) and it has issues with the backplate.
maybe ill try it again once i get my striker II formula next week...
The stuff is always OOS because ppl are supporting Petra. You just have to time it right or be patient (<-which is quite a problem for most of the ppl here for some reason :down: ).Quote:

In this first image you can see what you get for $11.99 + S&H. It includes screws to attach your D-Tek FuZion block to this mount. The white material is what keeps this mount from shorting to your motherboard.

In the second image you see the completed assembly. There are no instructions in the box so you're left to your imagination.
The bottom of the FuZion block is held on with 4 3/32" allen-wrench screws. At least I believe they are 3/32". I didn't have the proper size allen-wrench but I had a Torq screwdriver that was just large enough to use to remove them. Once you have the screws out you use the include Phillips screws so that your new mount looks like the image below.

Here's an image of the allen-wrench screws on the bottom of the FuZion block.

I didn't have a grip on the fact the ring actually is secured to the block using it's 4 bolts. This will for sure have an ultra clean look mounted on the mobo. :up:
Mine is still in route from Petras, but has been sent out the door.
whats wrong with the current solution? :s
Not a thing, but the stock ring on the D-Tek can cover some of the coils around the CPU. I think the Pro mount will allow better air flow to all the chips around the CPU.
Mostly, I think it is for looks myself, but it may actually give you firmer contact between block and CPU?
Not sure though...
There is no backplate on the "current" solution...
But when you buy a separate backplate, there is no real advantage ;)
The mounting looks identical to the Thermalright LGA775 bolt-thru kit (same backplate with the same square sponge to insulate, same screws with springs). It's almost look like D-Tek sourced them from Thermalright then add the bracket in the package and be done. If it's what I think, the bolts has a integrated stopper so you just screw till it stop and the spring will be working at the optimum pressure, making it much easier to have consistent mounts without any guesswork.
I have tried lots of times over the past year and it seems out of stock is the norm.Quote:

I manage a service based business and I understand that if I consistently run out of a product I need to increase my stock so that it doesn't happen again.
I wish petra the best of luck, but you can't sell it if you don't have it.
To the OP, sorry about the highjack.
Only thing ive noticed that theyre out of stock of for a long time is Thermochill radiators... and they arent the easiest to get ur hands on so i understand them...
oh and some parts wich is continued, but says out of stock anyways...
You mean discontinued ?Quote:

That is why folks are curious.
Well a few people have reported drops of 1-2c.
If more people confirm this, I may be tempted to get one myself. This would be easier to use than the current system and help with more consistent mounts.
I think I'll build this myself.
The original Fuzion retention plate is indeed quite not practical enough for my tastes. I'm using Thermalright's backplate with the block already so nothing else is required except some simple cutting and drilling.
anyone have a picture of this thing installed on a mobo?
Mobo install picture will be posted soon.
I have received my D-Tek Pro Mount kit, and my general impression is good.
The backplate feels much stronger than it looked to me in the picture. I don't think there will any problem with it bending...
I also think the ring feels plenty beefy too. I think it should do an execllent job of keeping pressure between block and chip! :up:

Note: The mounting bolts on the pro-mount do stop themselves when they have decided you have tightened them enouigh...
This should help keep the mounting pressure more even.
That's what I thought. Make for a braindead simplicity of mounting so I'm in for one... I'll bug NCIX on ETA as they are out of stock unfortunately.Quote:
