So I modified my spiral waterblock which has found its way back to cooling a cpu. I had several different thoughts of how I was going to set up the waterblock for the socket 478 P4 but my final design turns out to be the easiest and quickest way to adapt a waterblock to the socket 478 motherboard.

I fabricated a top plate that helps centers the waterblock over the cpu and uses the original hsf mounting clip to install. There is nothing better than having an easy and presice way of installing your waterblock. The P4 is a 1.6a@2400Mhz (16x150) using 1.65 vcore. Full load temps are 32c.

There were other mods on this venture and you can see the pics here. I still have to make a shroud and finish the case but I do have a good start.
