I was considering drawing up some designs for TEC blocks, and eventually decided not to bother with SocketA for 2 reasons.

1. As you have discovered, there ain't much room to effectively cool a large tec with the restrictions imposed by the mounting holes.
2. SocketA ain't gonna be with us that much longer, particularly with the introductionof cheaper athlon64 procs just round the corner.
