I am back again, with an interesting problem.

I am building an in place water-cooling system that vents the heat outside. Yes; I have hoses and power cables running through the floor so I can get the fan noise and heat outside. But, that is off topic; I am currently going to water cool my 845 chipset, but pretty soon I will be upgrading my computer motherboard, and I plan to buy one of Asus's P4G8X. These have Intel’s entry-level workstation chipset in it (E7205), and it needs to be water cooled because of the over-clocking I want to do. Now my question is whether I should just use a chipset cooler intended for the Northbridge chipsets (845-865-875). Or should I search for a specific waterblock?

Thanks ahead of time for scratching your head over this one!
