Good news! I am sure the temps will be significantly lower than the stock heatsinks.
I certainly hope so. I still have testing to do which I hope to conduct on Thursday.
Any chance that this thing is going to be black in order to match the rest of the board :) ?

Oh lord its beautiful! Thanks for the pics.
My pleasure! now hopefully I can get some good test results
That looks great!
gentlemen... I would like to report absolute success...
I let the mobo idle for FIFTEEN minutes with NO WATER in the block...
once the NB and Vregs reached 40°C I pumped water through it, at a very slow rate.

Standards were a 65°F room, pumped 75°F water through the block.
NB temps were in the mid to lower 30's(C)
Sounds good ... can you tell other settings (CPU OC, Vcore, etc?)

I was not able to check any load temps because this was just done in the bios for now. No hard drive was hooked up. However... I did OC the board to 4.2 GHz, and the bios temps were unchanged (with the exception of the cpu
Any new updates?
