| Alu all the way the only block I'll ever make in copper is a block that needs brazing like a direct die block for phase change cooling that block is a weird design, because I was thinking more about looks than about performance. I almost freaked out when I saw the performance. that block has 2 inlets and 2 outlets and keeps my processor just over 30°C when stressing. Roomtemp is something like... 23°C so f*ck copper alu is: - easier to machine - I like the looks of alu better than copper - less weight - maybe a little less performance than copperblocks, but I bet I do outperform a lot of copperblocks with that b*tchass block... grtz |

| are you talking a small AMD 3GHz or a Intel 3GHz? Would love to see a waterblock that can get an AMD over 3GHz design is pretty simple, but effective. ever tried a pin-design? more coolingsurface grtz |

| nope i didn't try that. i don't think the 1cm² will make the difference. maybe i can try i am talking about a A64 3000+ 1.8 ghz. i reached 2.85 so far but temps are a bit high. about the design, its simple but if the direct die doesn't work that well(i hope it does offcourse) then i am going to close the center hole.

| That's an outstanding overclock are you using your waterchiller with that? because with just normal watercooling that is WICKED :d And I think the centerhole will do it's job... |

| nope 2.85 was with aircooling but not 100% stable. temps were like 45-50° thinking with watercooling they have to be somewhere between 20-30° i don't have a normal watercooling actualy. some guys would agree to that :grin: and i am still in the design fase of the chiller
