Athlon 64 FX Waterblock design -Cascade style

ZapWizard · 12-19-2003, 02:50 PM

Ok, I have my 5950 waterblock designed, next I need a waterblock for my Athlon 64 FX51

After tons of research I have decided on a cascade style block.

The entire thing may be slimed down and made entirely of copper.
(To match my 5950 Block)

The copper jet tubes may simply become normal plastic tubes.

Looks great!

What is the inner diameter of the jet tubes?

Do you have a 3D model of the A64 socket?

The tubes will probably be just under 2mm(Inside), the holes in the copper are 3mm.

I don't have a model of the socket, I just measured the height of the heatspreader above the motherboard.
The heatspreader is 40mm x 40mm

Ok, that's not-too-hard to be machined...

I intend to make a good, exact model...it's always useful....

any reason why you have 3 pipes?

go for 2 pipes and angle them a bit more flow friendly. looks very nice though

ZapWizard,

Get rid of the 90º turns just into and out of the block... unless you ABSOLUTELY need them to clear some hardware.
