    I have one, what do you mean by "fitting" being weak? What are you calling the fitting?
    I will be doing a review once the dust settles around here on 4 of their blocks. They all look to be extremely well made to me.

    by fitting i mean how it attaches to the socket, the bolts or pins or w/e it uses to hold itself down tothe socket, ive heard its weak so it can slide and become misseated easily

    or in my own choice of words, how well it "fits"
    (yeah i know it doesnt make much sense)

    They use the 3 lug system for AMD, unsure havn't heard any problems so far with the mounting device.

    It does look a little flimsy, but I have not even mounted the block yet. The blocks in general look very well made and are really beautiful. When all the crap comes to an end around here, I will have time to finish the review of all 4 blocks.
    I will try to mount that block tomorrow and post here for you, but I doubt there will be any problems with it.

    Thanks for your concern, but I have obligations to Silverprop and to the forum and I will fulfill them.
    I have spoken to Silverprop and they are very cool about the time table.

    I don't have the CPU block as does The Dude, but I do have the Fusion HL block for the GPU and I'd like to second what Dude said about it. High quality of workmanship and finish. The Fusion is a micro channel design.

    I relize that don't help with your question regarding the CPU mountings, but IMO they make a quality block.
