AMD support will be coming according to Swiftech,

"Motherboard and CPU Compatibility

The Apogee™ XT is shipped with a universal hold-down plate and retention mechanism compatible with all Intel® Core™ desktop processors: socket 775, socket 1156, and socket 1366. The motherboard back-plate is included for Core™ i7, and will also be included for Core™ i5 upon product availability, which is expected mid-october 2009. This part will be mailed upon-request free of charge to all customers who purchase the block before the plate becomes available. The socket 775 motherboard back-plate is not included with the block, but will also be mailed upon request at no charge.

Hold-down plates for other processors, such as AMD's and server platforms will be released in the coming weeks and available in option."

Looks pretty nice, I think with a nice look block like that I would just run it the 775 way, ends up showing it off a bit more.

wow check out the coverage of those micro pins. looks like 2-3 degrees better than GTZ.. looks like no way to use a compression fitting on it though..

Looks like Swiftech was able to.

the inlet head is actually detachable and rotatable by 180 degrees to allow for big fittings of course it causes slightly higher restriction and about 0.1 degrees higher temp

quoted from bit tech

Restriction is also reduced out of the box compared to the Apogee GTZ although rotating the inlet plate will see slightly higher restriction and fractionally higher (0.1°C) temperatures. Still, it's a tiny compromise to be able to use some sexy compression fittings.

Thats hot.

Thanks for the update Ken. I was really gonna be mad as I like my OCZ Hydroflow, but this puppy is just awesome.

I don't like the fact it uses three gaskets. Too much that can leak.

Nice shiny block from Swiftech, the mounting mechanism of the GTZ is simply great and this new block looks like to be a good performer. Waiting for more test review of the XT to come out. :)

There's a couple problems with this block.

#1) They are redesigning the block so it doesn't kill x58 Gigabyte boards

#2) Compression fittings will not screw down all the way.
