You discovered my most sacred secret!! Drat!!
Oh well, business cards are awesom for spreading the stuff around, aren't they.

One question tho. When you were clamping down the cpu to the cold plate, how did you know WHEN to stop applying pressure? Or did you just guestimate?

So what's up with this new 5x5" radiator????
I'm still not decided on the one I will use with my upcoming Tbird and 156W pelt. I'm leaning heavily towards the Lytron 6220.

oh ja...you are scary with that Dremmel bud!!
Good job!

How did I know when to stop, Right about the point I started getting scared about shattering the core.

I must have had around 60 - 80Lbs of pressuse on it but it was all perfecly even and on the face of the core not on the sides. I am sure if it was crooked it woulda broke it almost instantly.

I will be getting one of OCWC's 5x5 monsters soon will let ya know
