    That site only had flat base versions, if you check swiftech you will see there are stepped-base and flat-base versions. To mount on LGA-775 you need to get a stepped-base mcw-6002. Im sure you could probably take a dremel to one side or something, but i dont think it will mount stock, just a heads up.

    Actually that socket-A 6002 on hardforums should be stepped i believe. These are all but impossible to find anymore so that might be your best bet, or just wait on the fuzion, the fuzion looks like its going to be nice.

    Oops Its on its way and its too late... I'm away on vacation as well, so the shop can't even call me lol I'll do something about it or give it away. I ordered a Dtek as well Just to make things clear, I have use for these blocks in any event because of the freaking number of PCs in my family.

    Edit: I checked my online store receipt. It says "for Socket 775" so I gather it should work. Or else I have legitimate reason to return.

    Their description of the block is seriously borked. The one you ordered is called a mcw-6000 flat base with 1/2" barbs on the website.

    First the MCW-6002 is the 1/2" barbs version and 6000 is the 3/8"
    second the lga 775 version is supposed to be stepped base according to swiftech but they are calling it flat base.

    So you may be getting the correct product but their description of it is all messed up. Not really sure, either way good luck.
