Introduction
ap·o·gee: The farthest
or highest point; the apex; a final climactic stage
The Apogee™ 1U low profile CPU water-block series use the same Patent Pending Diamond Pin Matrix technology as the award-winning Apogee base plate, with a low profile housing to allow installation in 1U racks or Small Form Factor Computers.
Performance and flow data
Overall thermal performance and flow characteristics are similar to the Apogee water-block as shown by the curves below:

Motherboard and CPU
Compatibility
The Apogee™ 1U comes in two versions, corresponding to the two hold-down plate models.
Versions are mutually upgradeable as the body of the water-block is identical:
1. The Apogee™ 1U Server is compatible with:
- Socket 603/604 (Intel® Xeon™ - all versions)
- Socket 771 (Intel® Xeon™ - all versions)
- Socket 754, 939, 940 (AMD® 64 & Opteron processors).
Example of a dual Xeon® setup
Example of Opteron® installation
2. The Apogee™ 1U 775 is compatible with:
- Socket LGA 775: Pentium® 4, Pentium® D, Celeron®, Celeron® D
Example of Pentium® 4 socket 775
installation
Note 1: The Orientation of the inlet and outlet can be conveniently changed by rotating the hold-down plate.
Note 2: Removal of the motherboard is necessary to install the mounting posts in all cases, except with AMD® Athlon™ 64 and Opteron™ (socket 754, 939 and 940). Fittings & tubing compatibility
Two sets of Nylon hose barbs are included with the device: 3/8" (10mm) and 1/2" (12mm). An extra set of 1/4" fittings (6mm) is included for Europe.
The apogee uses NPSM threads. Please refer to "Connector Thread Compatibility" HERE for further information about this US standard.

Specifications
- The CNC machined C110 copper base plate is
at the heart of Apogee™ 1U cooling efficiency. The Patent Pending
Diamond Pin Matrix was optimized using Computational Fluid Dynamics
analysis to yield the remarkable results recorded by the water-block.
In the process, thickness of the base was reduced to 3mm. This
resulted in a higher compliance of the base with its mating
surface (i.e. the CPU heat spreader) thanks to the base plate
added flexing ability.
Patent Pending Diamond Pin Matrix Copper base plate
- The housing is injection molded out of Black
Acetal. This process is key allow mass production of the water-block,
and thus economies of scale.
