Thanks ppl. I just ordered a Maze3-1 for my first h2o setup after I got fed up with my girlfriend telling me to shut down my relatively loud PC at bedtime. Now I have to think about modding the darned thing before I even recieved it (she gets annoyed with projects constantly cluttering our apartment too ;-)

I understand why metal bolts are prefered, but I'm leary of going without some sort of spring compression. Without a spring, the mount will likely loosen quickly from creep in the mobo & bolts (not to mention further tightening to compensate for creep could cause yielding or cracks). To keep things more reliable, I was thinking about finding a stiffer spring at a hardware store to go with metal bolts. What do you guys think about this?

I have been putting off h2o until now because I didn't like the idea of having to constantly check up on things, so any help here would be appreciated.
