Chipset Cooling

[duke]

When it comes to cooling the chipset on a motherboard there are many blocks readily available that fit directly on after removing the stock heat dissipator.

My question is what can you do when you have a set up like on my board as shown below:

In an idea world I'd like a block that fits into that heatpipe setup so it would kill 3 birds with one breezeblock. Is this possible? or would I have to remove the heatpipe?

Swiftec block for the NB, Enzotec low profile for the south and the thermalright fet sink not do the job?

You'll have to remove the lot enless you want to go cutting/bending pipes.

yeah unfortunately that was the answer i was expecting and not hoping for

ah well, the stock cooling will have to do for now

 

[Ham]

Yeah, complete after market solutions would just be impractical, as every board is different.

indeed although Asus is kind of getting the right idea designing boards with inbuilt watercooling options all they need to do now is perfect them
