D-Tek Whitewater...

OK, have all those people who've been waiting months finally received their D-Tek production Whitewaters? If so, post your results... Itching to see some numbers.

A couple of people over at overclockers forum got their dtek WWs up and running. You might want to check their results.

i just got mine and dont have any allen wrenches to take it apart. the instructions that came with the whitewater said

Quote:

Important for Socket A (AMD systems and Aluminum topped White Water ONLY: one end of the water-block has 3 noches on the middle plate while looking at the block from the top reading the engraving, it would be the right side...You will see degraded cooling performance unless this measure is taken

which engraving are we supposed to be reading? D-Tek or WW? if you read DTEK, WW looks like MM.

[edit]
i found that torx-10 works at opening it. upon further inspection of the middle plate, there are NO notches at all. what gives? my box says P4 but crossed out in pen and someone wrote AMD over it. did i actually get a p4 instead of amd block?

[edit2]
after aligning the WW over my old amd mobo (kr7a), the holes match up. i wonder what's up w/ the missing notches

The P4 block and the AMD block are the same thing. The only difference is the adaptor plate which is included. Whoever shipped your block probably ran out of AMD blocks, and so pulled open an Intel box, took out the adaptor plate, and wrote AMD on the box, and shipped it to you.

With the direction of mounting, look down the central barb. On the black anodised blocks the inlet slit will be slightly off center to one side. Make sure that the slit is furthest away from the Socket A latch handle and that's the correct way to mount it.

thanks Cathar.

i'm pretty sure this is the right way to mount it, but wanna make sure.

(i had to hold it up to the sun. the digicam flash and room lighting isnt that great)
