Do you not wonder WHY the Athlons are being crushed ?
WHY the ears are being broken off the sockets ?

Has anyone mentioned AMD's (for example) pressure clamping limit of 24 psi ?

Are you fellows using micro-torque wrenches for these 1/4 in. NC machine screws ?
Appropriatly corrected for the RMS surface finish of the specific type screw and nut ?

Is there a simple way to apply a defined (and limited) amount of force ?
Anyone seen the VapoChill clamping setup ?
Or that of Joe's preferred manufacturer, who is it - oh yes, Swiftech.
They both use springs which given a certain resistance, and compression, can produce a (Kevin, I'm sorry to refer to numbers) calculated force applied to the CPU.

I actually agree with you Bill, For the longest time (Actually I think N8 used em first) using springs to provide even pressure on each side. I said it before for mounting swiftech is tops on that new block.
