Trouble getting a maze1c to fit on my GF3 Ti200

SonixOS · 08-27-2002, 02:18 PM

Hey guys, I am having trouble getting my maze1c to fit on my video card. Its a little bit bigger than my heatsink. So to get to use them holes i would have to have the block angled a little. Is there another way to mount it on? If i do find copper around here i would love to buy some and use one block to cool my chips and gpu. Any ideas? I am thinking maybe a make my own acrylic clamp for it. I think that might work.

Personally, I'd stick with thermal epoxy, but maybe that's because I'm lazy

Alternatively, you could tap holes at the bottom of the block (just make sure you don't accidentally drill into a channel!). As long as the block covers the GPU, it should be OK.

i think that block is 2x2 i think the mounting holes are outside that 2x2 area, you can make a hold down that will streach across the block to those holes and use bolts... and bolt it on.. or you could solder some copper to it and drill the holes for the bolts...

I second bigben, aside from epoxy(which is not a bad idea) drilling and tapping holes would work great.

What I did to fit my DD block on GeForce cards was to get a piece of steal (I just cut a 3*3 square from an old AT case) then drill holes in it to line up with the holes on the card. Add screws, nuts and washers and you're done.
