66.5dBa?  Great airflow to noise ratio?!  It will be once you go deaf.  Then it will be the perfect ratio

Once you put your headphones on and start playing something you won't hear even the loudest GTX480. So get a pare of big headphones that cover your ears and noise won't bother you anymore

I hear the fan over the 9800GTX+ fan at 100%

here's an idea: you got a good temp decrease out of the basic heatsink as part of the WC block.  Why not make a WC block with just a plain flat top, and then add any comsumer air cooler on top of it?  just wondering if a high end air cooler would provide a further cooling over the basic heatsink and fan?

Mounting an air cooler to a water block?  Then the cooler won't be making contact with the CPU, but with the copper water block.  Seems silly.

While it is not ideal in terms of over all transfer rates, copper still moves quite a bit of heat. It would work quite well in terms of a little extra boost, just not perfect.

just thinking, instead of a basic heatsink, using a higherend one, or running heat pipes through the watercooling block to extend the cooling even further. 

I can't even begin to tell you the improvements this block as undergone...  hopefully I can test this week, but I am so swamped that I am neglecting my family.

really?  Details....details...., lol

All in the internals.  the baseplate where the water goes through and touches the CPU, is less then 1 millimeter. 

Thinned out a few area's that had an abundance of copper. 

itd be interesting if he used a HDT tech  by putting the water block in this order

HDT to cpu hollowed out part to hdt for water copper heatsink

pipes from hdt to kits that are vertical (vs the horizontal copper heatsink ones) but the fins will give enough room for a 90mm

so sandwhich style you got

hdt water tunnels copper basic heatsink pipes leading to fins

fans on fins and heatsink

i bet no amount of heat would stop that thing XD

a few of the improved models went out, but I haven't heard back with how well it did. 

Boy, this needs to be brought back to life. With the level of work you put into it, i am suprised few people showed results.

Thanks!  I appreciate it.  I am working to refine it as always.  Building a CNC mill to help with the production.

Great work! Perhaps a LGA 1156 model in the near future? 

Thanks!  Glad you like it.  1156 is not impossible at all, but I am working on my CNC machine at the moment.  Once it has been completed ill be up & running again.

Nate, great job.  I'd put in a paten and then sell the design to EK or one of the other manufactures as it is a great freakin' idea. 

Thanks!  I still have to make some improvements to it, but I have so many other projects, and time is not exactly in abundance anymore.

Nate any pricing on this product? I'm certainly interested.

Haven't perfected it yet.  Subscribe to the post and you will be updated.

This is pretty awesome.

Thanks!

Hey Nate sent you a PM!

it ok. i wish evga own logo pc water liquar freeze new build mobo style. p67 have motherboard upgrade auto cold freeze temp itself add pc water cooling. i want save engery low than bill high eleric. 

..is everything ok?

@nateman_doo is this the fin part on top a modified DL140 G2 heatsink? xD

Clarify?

This heat sink is for a server, specifically a DL 140 Generation 2  it is an older rack mount server 1u. I was just curious if you used this a a base reference design? only because I had several laying around and thought it would be fun to see what I could try with them.
