I have my pc in bits at the moment due to motherboard upgrade and i mave my 6600gt out so i can see how it fits, But i am thinking of sticking with the maze4 gpu and fitting some ram sinks. I think the cooler is just too big.

Patients is the best tip i can give you hadhacker copper is the worst to work with. keep it cool and give it plenty of wd40 to stop it gripping the drill bits.
I guess I'll drill every other hole....
I'm using motor oil and seems to work pretty good...
how did you find your temps/OC were when you were using the block you made?
