Thanks for the post. That is the Swiftech MCW30 correct?

That would make the most current listing:

If you know the best thermal compound to attach each one, please fill it in.

Did you see that on the box it has...
Fusion Block System
H2O Ready: The next step in thermal solution. The Fusion block system combines the ROG's renowned heatpipe design with the ability to conduct to a water cooling system for a 47% increase in thermal performance compared to other heatpipe designs.

Not sure what to think about that....

North Bridge - DangerDen Maze4, Swiftech MCW30,
Use XXXXXX to attach the block to the chip.

EK is also T-10 days for NB x38 block, I still don't know about the SB

for the sb swittech mcw30 has a rang of Thru-motherboard installation (two-hole mount) with slotted brackets provide a range from 2.08" (53mm) to 2.36" (60mm) but how would it fit on the nb then do you have to force it or tilt the screws?
