It's a very nice looking block tho. The gap in the center (for socket clip) is sadly in the worst possible spot from a design perspective. Maybe the nozzle will somewhat help tho; get high velocity water right onto baseplate at that point.

thats why i wanted the thermaltake version of the base as it doesnt have the gap. It's not for the socket clip it's just a gap you would think akasa would know to put fins directly over the cpu die !
I might try cutting small fins into the gap.
