Mounting a DIY block
Hey Everyone, sorry for the noob-ish question, but I was just curious if there was anything special I had to do to safely and effectively mount a DIY block (r-type, probably) to my motherboard's mounting holes, such as using something non-conductive, etc. Thanks!

I bet you will find dozens of good examples. But to answer your question yes, you need to isolate any metals to avoid short-circuiting the motherboard. _______ TaTs |

Nylon washers will isolate any conductive mounting hardware from the motherboard surface.
Also, depending on the cpu socket type being used, the mounting pressure will have to be taken into consideration and I would suggest using springs and a hard stop mechanism to make it easier to apply the correct mounting pressure. |
