    EVGA SR2 Full Coverage Waterblock Prototype

    I am almost done with a prototype Waterblock for the EVGA SR2. Currently just messing around with Alumn, but the real version will be pure Copper.

    Thanks! no internals yet, still in the process of drilling and tapping. Once the hole placement is complete, milling is next.

    Since this is just a prototype I have a warm and fuzzy about starting actual production. I picked through every stash I could find for screws, but this was all I could find, so forgive the dark empty holes.

    I tired to pretty up the plastic on the belt sander but this plastic was too "rubbery" to be sanded. The next one will be Copper and Delrin (POM)

    That area covering the SB and NF200s should have some sort of logo on it!
    Signatures make my posts look huge... but I'm not humble enough to completely remove my signature, so I kept this note explaining it.

    Water flow only over the NB? Otherwise, that means some very thin channels past that right barb...

    You should move the right barb to the bottom middle right of the block so at least some water is flowing over those chips instead of going straight in and out of it

    Barbs anywhere other than the top row (where they are now) would potentially impede GPUs....

    Best to just leave them where they are and have a complex flowpath

    Some others have suggested putting a barb on the area directly over the South Bridge. In reality that will block any "potential" SLI setups. If you know that you will NEVER use those bottom 2, I can really put the nozzle anywhere you want. The nozzles where they are now allow access to all PCI-E slots.

    I will be placing an order for the raw material to make these soon. If you are interested, shoot me a PM.

    Actually I will have you know that I can certainly make a dual CPU cooler that will cover Both CPU's. I was going to start drafting that up soon, but I have something FAR more ambitious planned for the CPU's.

    But like I said, I will be ordering the raw materials for the first batch this week (wed the latest) so if anyone would like to jump on board let me know.

    It cools what needs to be cooled.

    Looks great!

    The MIPS block for the P6T6 looks really small in pictures, and smaller in person, but it does what it needs.
