Northbridge mesurements.
Does anyone have them lying around?
I have done quite a few searches, to no avail. I can't measure my own, simply because I can't risk taking it off (system is on the brink of death and must last till the new year). I figure I will whip up a northbridge block with my drillpress. Thx in advance. |
Old Dangerden chipset block had Center to Center hole distance: 2 5/16" according to their site. I think somewhere between 40x40 and 50x50 will work out for northbridge dimensions.
#rotor had a nice and easy way to make holddowns for chipset blocks, but his site's down now. |
the default is 59mm..... for most, but some boards are different....
my hold down looks like this.... and it employs the KISS philosophy to it maximum. :D http://3rotor.homelinux.com/images/c...P04674_sml.JPGhttp://3rotor.homelinux.com/images/c...P04677_sml.JPG |

my A7V 333 is 54.8mm apart. U have to check where the mountnig holes r at. This pic illustrates the 3 most common mounting positions. got it off the webby of a NB cooling company, which i have forgotten the name.

thx everybody, and just by looking at mine, they are at 59mm, right accross the heatsink. I am still looking at hold down methods, and am working on the design as we speak (prolly gonna be a two channel block, from one corner to the other (not too worried about max efficiency, considering my air heatsink can work without a fan on it now, and its barely 1/2cm thick).
