shadowcreaper · 29 Oct 2011 at 21:08

So im still waiting for a D-Tek adaptor to come onto the market in the UK,....

anyone know where you can get one from?(looked here and no adaptors

)

Current D-Tek fusion black is connected to my E8400 775 socket but i need a adaptor so that it will fit the new 1156/1155 motherboards. :rolleyes:

Been told by D-Tek they are making them but they cannot disclose where they selling them too :mad:

untill i can find one im kind of stuck....

No you're not. Dead easy to mod the stock bracket to fit; I did it last week:-

Excuse the mug

Just drill out the 775 mounting holes with a dremel. They're literally 2-3mm further out.

little worried about doing that to a £150+ motherboard though, im pretty sure it will void the warrenty too .....

so thanks for the idea but atm id like to try find a adaptor if anyone knows where to find one?

Mate it's a 50p piece of aluminium. If you **** it up (and you'd have to be really stupid to do so) you just buy a little sheet and get it cut out.

Obviously I didn't mean the motherboard!

silly me

So bassically to make my D-Tek CPU block work on a 1156/1155 motherboard(the new ones) i need to re-drill some holes further out from the orginaly 775 holes i currently have in the metal.

correct?

Yes - I literally used a dremel to widen the holes a little bit.

Look see:-

shadowcreaper · 8 Nov 2011 at 17:53

i guess the holes you widened are the corner ones

thanks for advice, i might try this now after your helpfull comment/idea,

Just checked my water CPU block bracket and it doesnt look like yours but rather smaller ...

do you still think there is enough room to dremmel the required holes to fit the waterblock onto the 1155 motherboard (would be this one Gigabyte Z68AP-D3 Intel Z68 ()??
