Are there other, perhaps better, options than ABS, for 3D printed CPU Heatsink mounts?
I'm working with a dual LGA 2011 motherboard with Narrow ILM sockets. Heatsink selection for the narrow mounting format is pretty darn poor. In the past, I've successfully used ABS prints of a mounting block that allowed the use of AMD Socket AM3/FM2/etc compatible heatsinks, which greatly expanded my selection.
This time, however, my Lulzbot Mini just can't seem to complete an ABS print of one of these without warping and curling.
Before I keep tinkering and discarding failed prints.....are there other filament types that will withstand the moderate heat I'd assume a CPU Cooler mount would get? I'm really reluctant to use PLA, and I'm unfamiliar with all the other types out there.
Thanks!
