It is funny that some things can be interpreted in different ways.

1. If the mobo fits a maze3, this wb will fit
2. You need to cool the heat generated by the cpu core. It is that what matters.
3. The "extra cooling" is different than cathar's because the heat passes through a much larger area (because the fin thickness is uneven). Heat passes better through a larger area. Temperature is inversely proportional to the cross sectional area.
4. Thicker = more distance? True but according to pythagoras theorem the distance is the root of Both the adjacent squared added to the opposite squared meaning that the distance will not be much larger but the area will be much larger.
5. Why would you want to add more mass to the cooler areas to build up heat? The heat will have already been absorbed by the water.

Any suggestions to the design?
