I have used a waterblock on an Intel, but it is alot more work, you need to change backplates, etc. The AM2 has a backplate, but the waterblocks use the installed one already. the only problem is, there is nothing holding the backplate to the motherboard, making it easy to knock it off, and having to take off mobo to get backplate off the bottom of case... :(. I almost always forget that, and have to take my mobo off every time i want to flush my system or move my waterblock for any reason.
double sided tape?
