I've been building AMD machines so long I've lost touch with the Intel world, so please spare my lack of Pentium 4 knowledge.......I've recently build a dual Xeon machine (see sig) with retail heatsinks and fans.......extremely loud and annoying!....so it's time to water cool.

Are the bolt patterns on the motherboard different from a standard P4 to a Xeon?......If so, anyone have dimensions?......who makes a waterblock to fit a Xeon pattern?......can I redrill, or modify a P4 block to fit?......TIA
