Athlon XP to AMD64 adapter plate

Rufus210 · 03-05-2005, 11:19 PM

So I posted a question a long, long time ago about how to do this. I finally over chirstmas break got around to actually doing it, and I just now got around to posting pics. Its amazing what 40 hours of school work a week will do to your watercooling hobby

.

Anyway, fairly straitforward adapter plate. Had a friend with a machine shop cut it out of a round stock of aluminum.

Nice block! Did you make that yourself?

There was actually a company that sold generic Socket A > 754/939 adapters for 10 bucks a piece. I'm still kicking myself for not buying one when I had the chance.

Its also possible to just use the bracket on the mobo, just screw it off and put it o a block upside down.

here an example picture of a bracket on a waterblock.

it works for all 939 mobo's and a lot of blocks.

Yup, made it almost two years ago. It's a white-water clone. I have lots of pics from building it here. It took a solid month of work with a friends dremil to make.

I had looked at doing that, but there were some clearence issues I just couldn't work out without hacking appart the bracket. Since I want the option of going back to air-cooling just in case, I decided that wouldn't be too good of a idea.
