Water blocks for amd 64

joeyd · 09-12-2003, 09:57 PM

Hey guys I haven't been keeping up with the scene. I have my maze 3 and a blackice 2 rad. I'm going to be getting the amd 64 3200+ and i was wondering which block would work best for this . Seeing how none of the motherboards have the 4 holes that i use for my current block.

ralf_c · 09-12-2003, 11:44 PM

maybe there is a way to convert the maze3 for the amd64 socket

joeyd · 09-12-2003, 11:55 PM

no products announced for the upcoming amd 64 chips ? Come on guys your the best of the best when it comes to this :-)

sn_85 · 09-13-2003, 12:02 AM

well the asetek waterchill waterblock can accept pretty much any modern day cpu. and the upcoming ones. http://www.asetek.com/default.asp?sh...on=2&menuID=-1

the zalman waterblock can accept socket 754 cpu's.

and #rotors custom hammer blocks

#rotors block is sweat but expensive as all heck. I have to email him to ask if this will work on current athlons too so i can sell my old block to help pay for this .

pHaestus · 09-13-2003, 02:28 AM

#rotor's prices are in canadian dollars (seeing as how he's Canadian and all). 0.7 US dollars or so.

joeyd · 09-13-2003, 03:48 AM

ohhhhh i see so i guess the block is about 50-60$ usd ? Dang those canadians. They are sly

I will be taking delivery of a batch of A64 conversion plates for the Cascade blocks end next week. Come the 22nd September these plates will be available for anyone to convert their existing Cascade block to A64 mode.

Enough of a plug for the Cascade though.

The only other A64 compatible blocks I'm aware of is the Asetek Waterchill, and the Zalman's, as mentioned above.

#Rotor · 09-13-2003, 08:14 AM

the answer to virtually any config today....

can be used on
Athlon
A64
Opteron
and p4(478p))\Xeon

and yes I have been Opteron ready.... eermm.... for a long time actually...

joeyd · 09-13-2003, 03:59 PM

How does that work on the athlon 64 boards. They don't have the 4 holes.

ralf_c · 09-13-2003, 04:07 PM

its only 2 holes now.

joeyd · 09-13-2003, 04:42 PM

ah okay i get my board next week . I ordered it but really no pics were avalible. #otor how much are u selling that block for usd ? I will pick it up next week if i have the money.

#Rotor · 09-14-2003, 08:54 PM

did you get my email....

joeyd · 09-14-2003, 09:41 PM

no :-( didn't notice that my precable email was here. My new one is jvd81@optonline.net. Thanks man

siavash_s_s · 09-20-2003, 05:38 AM

i didnt read the rest and am gonna post this straight away.. first off be sure u want that 64, then get a block from #rotor

edit: oops

superart · 09-20-2003, 01:18 PM

Is there a reason that AMD decided to go with 2 holes, even though everyone loved the 4 hole setup so much? Or is it just for shits and giggles?

joeyd · 09-20-2003, 03:23 PM

I just got my new board in let me tell u the 2 hole idea is great. They are Pegs that are screwed down in this plastic thing that goes around the socket almost like the p4 set up. Its very easy to install and i think just about anyone can do it with out damaging the cpu core. Which was a major complant

#Rotor · 09-20-2003, 07:05 PM

jip I can not find anything wrong with 2 holes.... much better than 4 if you ask me.... AMD did well....

siavash_s_s · 09-20-2003, 08:14 PM

can someone post an image of this 2 hole plastic holder thing on the mobo?

BillA · 09-21-2003, 09:17 AM

the MCW5000-64

can't see it so well against a black mobo
another sort on the MCW5000 page at swiftnets.com

g.l.amour · 09-21-2003, 10:47 AM

)

BillA · 09-21-2003, 02:31 PM

hmm, something new ?
how about

my fingers in all 'big' things, but a group effort overall

TerraMex · 09-21-2003, 04:29 PM

That's a sexy sandwitch Bill.

Anyway, i was checking OCworkbench and i saw this :

http://www.ocworkbench.com/2003/aliu...012%20copy.jpg

It's an ALI board. 4 standard mounting holes?

siavash_s_s · 09-21-2003, 06:20 PM
