Pete, are you planning on using any backplates with your mosfet blocks or havint you encountered any warping?

**Eddy_EK** · 10-14-2007, 10:58 PM

Hi!

Can anyone give me accurate +/- 0,1mm dimensions for the NB?

PM Eddy i will sort it with you, both NB, SB and i duno what ya wana do about mosfets?

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.

**considers going 11/8mm tubing but slaps itself to the head--forget it!**

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!

**Zeus** · 10-15-2007, 03:13 AM

I meant both blocks side by side in one pic just to get an idea of how close they are to one another.

Went through all 24 but didn't see one that had both in one pic.

I don't have a set of Mosfet blocks sadly, and i also think the one shop in the UK i got my kit off is out of stock. There is laods of room.

I need only the holde distances for NB.
For mosfets we need only to take away that bump...
In production...

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

**~~Pete~~** · 10-15-2007, 02:06 PM

Big thanks to Rob at Watercooling UK for measuring the block, too big!

so which one is it. realy inportant for ek

**~~Snyxxx~~** · 10-15-2007, 07:06 PM

Eddy,

How about adding a back plate to all the MOSFET block orders. They warp the board like crazy and would save a lot of people time making home made versions.

Thanks.

finally

**~~Snyxxx~~** · 10-16-2007, 03:56 AM

Thanks for the link, but my point stands these should be part of the base order.

**welshtom** · 10-16-2007, 03:58 AM

yes I think they should be as well - but its only recently Cpu block manufacturers have recognised this (Swiftech) after years and years of not using them.

I just made them as we had shedloads of emails asking for them

**~~Pete~~** · 10-16-2007, 06:45 AM

Tom are you surpling them with longer screws as stock i found are very tigther in length to fit

Exactly.. I feel the urge to disassemble my rig, but..

I also think Eddy K. should get a board himself to doublecheck & look at it first hand (& maybe get some fresh ideas for SB, mosfets etc..).

Well i'd be way more than happy to help him. This topic was

**egandt** · 10-18-2007, 11:04 AM

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
