LGA1366 CPU blocks

[ranker]

I love that warm fuzzy feeling you get when you complete making something and it turns out good

Never tried to flame polish Delrin before but thought i'd give it a go and it worked

Just need a matching NB one now

This is the XS spirit of innovation that I love. Great job Coolermeister!

@ Coolmiester

Looks very sweet!!!! But how is the mounting on the backside? Aren't affraid that you bent the mobo without any backplate supporting it?

@ All

Are the cooling capabilities of the EK Supreme comparable to the Fuzion version 1?

[coolmiester]

Oh yeah, that was just a test fit and i'll be making backing plates for CPU and NB for when i do the final fit

You can see the making of the top here

Its essentially an MC-Chipset block.

How about modifying a GTZ bracket and combine it with an EK backplate for mounting the Fuzion version 1?

That´s exactly what i´ve done. Havent mounted it yet but i think it will work just great. Using the old screws and springs from the first D-tek Fuzion mountkit.

Maybe not the sweatest modd, but it´s cheap

Well, I think it's a sweet, cheap and decent mod till an official bracket will be released. But are you also planning on using the EK backplate for mounting?

And do you think there is still enough material on the GTZ bracket after using a dremel? How much did you remove to make it fit?

I have tried to push down the plate and what i can see it´s not bending anything, so yes it´s enough with material to hold down the block. And i will use the GTZ backplate. Have remove about 2-3mm on each side.
