I was wondering when this thread would happen. LOL
Here is my OLD prototype CNC block for anybody who missed it: (May 2006) ![]() ![]() As you can see, it was never finished. ![]() The holes on the ends were for the 939 socket, since that was the top of the line back then!

Very nice. I like the shape--it's so different than most of the designs I have seen.

Subscribed. I can't miss out on concentrated coolness like this.
![]() Martin's thread had me brainstorming a bit- I posted a quick sketch a while back- I just don't have access to a CNC. Still, I'll throw out ideas if I can.I like that oval design Ry, should make the flow a bit better. Might need some pins though.

Why do you think it is that no one has created a "open block"?
A water block open on the bottom. Sealed by an o-ring seal around the bottom lip. Just clamp it right onto the IHS and leak test it. Eliminate the thermal interface all together.

Actually I have thought about the open block, I just don't have a CPU to risk trashing.
__________________The only truly effective way to do it would be to lap the CPU, and then use a single point engraving tool to cross-hatch the inner portion of the IHS for a higher surface area.

Shoot just super glue that open block on there...
But you'd have to mill a spikey IHS to replace that stock Intel one...
