Asus P6T Northbridge Water block

Hi I've found a water block Click here I'm thinking of buying it but the only problem is I don't know how I'd replace the north bridge block on the P6T.

As you can see here its connected to the mosfet cooling block. Now I don't think there is a full cover water block that does both mosfet and north bridge I've been googling for one but with no success wouldn't mind if someone could link me to one or a solution to adding this single block.

You would need three separate blocks. One for the two chipsets and one each for two of the mosfets.

This will fit the deluxe v1/v2 so may fit your board, you would probably have to research to see if others have fitted it, or even e-mail EK about it. Will cool the NB/SB.

Mosfet blocks, again will fit the deluxe but dunno about the normal version, don't see why not though.

Im considering getting these for my mobo, but compatability says visual only, so i myself have to do some research.

Claims to not have a supported mosfet block for your mobo.

If you remove the NB sink from your mobo you may find that the heat pipe will just twist or prise out of a recess in the sink.. The only unknown is how far into the sink it goes, you may just have to remove it to see if it is likely to get in the way once you replace the sink with a water block.

well I emailed EK and there are no support full blocks for my motherboard and they also stated that they had no interest in making any in the future. So basically I have a dual loop project coming up really soon i.e. 1-2 weeks so I shall try removing the NB heatsink then.
