I doubt you will find to many water blocks, even DIY, that are around. Water cooling was still pretty much DIY back then and not to many made stuff for slot CPU's.

Just the price for the copper will probably buy you a faster system these days.
AMD's K5, K6, K6-2 and K6-3 were all Socket 7 and Super Socket 7 processors.

AMD's K7 came out in Slot A format from 550MHz to 1GHz I believe. Slot A was not compatible with Slot 1 (Intel's slot) and vice versa.

Socket 370 appeared with the Celeron CPU's. Once Intel released their 0,18u based Pentium !!!'s they spanned both the Slot 1 and Socket 370 range.

Slot 1 held early Celeron's (anyone remember the 300A?), Pentium II's as well as Pentium !!!'s.
