Question. The RBX for the 64 does not cover the entire cpu heatspreader. Is this bad? It only leaves maybe about a 1/4 inch on both sides uncoverd (maybe even less). Will this affect cooling temps at all? I imagine they would sell it for the 64 if it wouldn't work, right?

Any thoughts?

well it might not cover the ihs but it covers the core , the main purpose of the ihs is to protect the core. One main reason people want to cover the whole thing is becouse they think the core is as big has the ihs and it is definantly not! Rbx is a good block and should work good with it
 
Thanks for the reply. Sounds like I won't have any problems. I will post in a couple of weeks with the results of the new setup.
Thanks.
