Hello I'm new to water cooling and have been spending a lot of time reading, reading, and reading! I have one question and looking around at most water blocks I can't seem to find one that will fit my processor. Dell T710 Tower Intel Quad Core E5506 Xeon It supposts two processors so I went and took the heat sink bracket out to get an exact measurement of the back plate and screw holes dimensions. Length = 100mm Height = 70mm Width = 3mm Any suggestion on one that would fit and a good place to purchase from online? *not sure if image will show up*
A Xeon e5506 is a socket 1366 processor. these water blocks fits that socket. Danger Den is really easy to deal with and will be happy to answer any questions you have if you give them a call. I've been buying from them for years, very nice folks.
Water cooling really isnt ideal, especially since you have a xeon on a dell motherboard which you cant overclock. You should just get some good air cooling, then you dont have to worry about leaks, plus alot of air cooling solutions are quieter than water cooling ones.
