I'm trying to prove to someone that the 3870x2 blocks don't fit on the 4870x2. Has anyone here tried it and can say 100% that it works/doesn't work?
Thank you.
It is pretty close, compare the two pcbs and blocks and you will see that there are a couple of mounting holes in different locations. Also some of the contact points on the block for the vrms don't quite line up. It is unfortunate but it won't fit without physically altering the block.
