    Any pics with both mosfetblocks mounted by chance?

    These mosfetblocks are very tastefull, especially in delrin, only concern is how to get a decent connection with at least 7/16" tubing from the one block to the other without getting insane kinkin.

    I know it's not necessary to go from one mosfetblock to the other but it looks the best by far.

    Please read the posts people put. It took me an hour to edit my photos in size and light then get photobucket to load them up.

    Not to say the modding of the block to fit on the back at the IO.

    Over 24 photos showing it off go look!

    I've decided. Keep the stock mosfet cooling (thinking of getting Thermalrights mosfet coolers though), MCW30 on NB and Thermaltake's Spirit on SB.

    EK ASUS 3 mosfet what did you put under them

    I bought a very similar cooling solution, except that I'm using a Danger Den NB coller which was shown to fit on clunk.org. However now I have a question for Pete What did you use between the mosfet Heatsinks and the MB, I ordered but thermal tape and thermal pads, but can not decide which to use? so the question is do you have a suggestion?

    Thanks,
    ERIC

    Anyone tried using the mosfet WBs on other boards? I am wondering if any of them could be made to work on an Abit P35 mobo.

    Would this fits on Maximus Formula? This is 16mm width vs EK 17mm width, correct?

    Before putting the cooler on the NB did you replace the heat spreader?, I have the exact same issue where th heat spreader came off, the chip appears fine however. (Damn hard glue they use on the NB).

    What do you suggest Pete?
    Thanks,

    EK-Mosfet ASUS 3a (X38)

    http://ekwaterblocks.com/shop/index.php?cPath=21_48 (bottom of the page)





    Mosfet ASUS 3a water blocks supports following motherboards:

    Especially X38 chipset ASUS motherboards and also:
    P5K,
    P5W,
    A8N,
    A8N 32,
    P5B,
    P5K3,
    5N32,
    Commando,
    Striker,
    Striker Extreme

    Whats really good is they are same price as the ASUS EK 3 blocks.

    Hopefull with a Chilled PC mosfet backplate these will do a much better job at cooling my mosfets that are getting uber hot
