Unhappy Waterblocks and Slot 1, Socket A, Socket 370 and so on

I've been shopping around for waterblocks for the past couple of days and I find it very frustrating !!

I'm on an old piece of machine, PII Slot 1, and getting a waterblock for this is just impossible... well there are some but they are so hideous and double the size of regual waterblock taht they can only be used on Slot 1

But I also want to test my waterblock on other systems such as Durons and PIII's and that's really important for me.

Now, I really miss on the difference between these Slot 1, Slot a, socket 7, socket 8, socket 370 and blah blah blah It just doesn't make much sense to know which waterblocks go on what CPU's.

What I need is some help in sorting out all these "chipsets" (?), and finding a waterblock that would be very versatile and work on multiple "chipset arragements" (all those slots and sockets)

I see that usually to use a pIII 370 on a Duron, one must change the shims or fittings... is such a thing possible for the slot 1??

Please help out the very confused and dazed ME, that's trying to overclock his computer and fell into this hole
