    Not a problem, just curious. asura had a great idea for extra barbs and my mom can gold leaf a moving car

    Edit: Need gold plated hose clamps more since the hose covers most of the barb!

    It uses the same mounting as the XT and GTZ. So there are already LGA771 plates available for this block. Although you would need to paint it yourself.
    Thanx lowfat and Gabe, yep, I thought in both cases it might work. Let's see if I can order from PPCS, but I reckon they might all be gone by now.

    Looks like you forgot about the unnumbered one... which makes it mine?

    Dang, this block and the Swiftech LGA2011 mounting hardware became available right after I built my system

    My outgoing 1366 machine had the old EK gold plated limited edition block, I'm about to tear that apart and see how the gold plating stood up to service since October 2009. I'll post photos.

    Bacata is a distributor. here is a where to buy list: http://www.bacata.net/index.php?p=re...choix=net&l=uk
    Because the Apogee HD Gold is a limited edition you should probably send Bacata an email and ask a list of E-retailers carrying it.

    I know that Frozen CPU and Performance-pcs have international shipping so that's an option.

    Just like on the "regular" Apogee HD you can use compression fittings (up to 1/2" ID 3/4" OD on the main inlet/outlet!).

    Thanks for the heads up!
    I just checked Linus unboxing @ youtube and I saw that he also changed his barbs to compression fittings aswell

    Order placed!
