Are there any good waterblocks out there that use the standard clip set up to attach it to the cpu? If you don’t have holes on your motherboard?

Thanks

I think Swiftech do ones which attach onto the Socket A lugs

Swiftech 8does* make one - it seems to work well enough as well :)

past that, I don't think any other manufacturers make them. I bought it mainly because it has some really good reviews, because swiftech's customer service is incredible (it is my first setup, and such things are important), and because it is *really* easy to install.

http://www.swiftnets.com/ is where you can check it out and read some reviews.

there are companies that make adaptors for the waterblocks... that'll help you mount most blocks wihtout socket lugs

I don't know if you'd consider the original Maze1 good or not but it uses the socket clips. Linky. (http://www.dangerden.com/mall/blocks/maze1.asp)

dangerden.com sells socket-a hold downs for the Maze3 block. Look at the second or third picture on this page:

I am using the Innovatek Revision 3 waterblock and it works good since I changed the fittings to 1/2"...
