i just threw together another computer from various parts, and the way the psu is positioned, there is little room above the cpu for a heatsink..so i was thinking water cooling block since they aren't as tall as a heatsink. But i think i need a side or slanted mounted GOOD cpu waterblock.


i've seen the swiftech ones that are slanted..any others?

By diagonal/side mounted, I'm assuming you mean the angle of the tubes like this one. If so, you could probably modify just about any waterblock to do what you want using 90 degree barbs. Making something like this:

into something like this:

Hope this helps
