making an HSF, yes an HSF, need suggestions
 

ok, i know this is a WB forum, and i have made a WB, but im making an HSF for my kyro 2 GPU, the fan (like the blue orb) died and it keeps overheating and freezing games after a while,

here is the material i have to work with, and the last pick is a possible design i am considering doing with a drill press, found that pick on a forum, they are mounted on an ati 9700, OR should i just cut into it like the blue thermaltake block in the picks, the only thing is that it will be with a grinder and hand saw lol.

i'll be using one of the thinner pieces, how thick should my base be

so which desing is better? the wholes, or the channels?

well thanks for your help everyone!!
