CPU (LGA775) waterblock advice

geogob · 11-27-2007, 02:25 AM

I need an LGA775 CPU waterblock. Any suggestions?
I was considering the Swiftech APOGEE GTX. Anyone having experience with it?

Up to now, I'm running with a Zalman ZM-WB2, which works very well. Not compatible with the 775 socket though and the ZM-WB4 looks a bit less efficient... but that's only as a first impressions.

Thanks for the help!

Well, I wasn't sure in which of those two forums to post it. Since the other one's name starts with "PR Help" and because of the general content found in it, this one (Off Topic) seemed more appropriate.

Maybe rename the other forum to "PR Help and General Hardware Issues".

Well. In the end, I decided to go for the D-Tek fuzion. Overall, it seems like it's better built than the apogee, and there's no discussion about silly (stupid) ideas like bowing with it.

If anyone is interested about cooling performance reports with the QX9650, just tell me and I'll keep you posted.
