The waterblock is an x-aqua which i purchased from xoxide.com for around $30 I dont remember the exact price. Yes I would do it again not only would the performance be great if I had a 1/2 @§§ decent radiator and the experience was fun. As for the wb cover in the tec. It sits perfectly ontop of it. I think it MIGHT even overlap a few mm. As for how thick the cold plate is im not too sure prolly a few mm. As for how I mounted it I took the stock/factory heatsink and cut off the fins as close to the base as i could. I then used metal files and filed the fins down all the way to the base to where all I had was a flat plate with mounting holes. I then lapped it up real good and then attached it to the cold side of the tec,then attached the wb to the hotside of the tec obviously haha. Then I just let the mounting holes on the wb be (although you COULD cut them off) and mounted it like you would have a reguar heating on the NB using the little "push pins".
