Well, i dont mind if its not that good.It must at least be better than my current one cause my SB is kinda hot. I will check out at LYP today and see whether i could find it or not.I actually first saw the CM NB cooler that look so much like the Zalman for replacement but it uses thermal tape which i dont like cause i cant find them..

no answer? i need to know which is the temp for my chipset

Check it at bios?

Hey guys, i just found that chipset doenst need that sophisticated cooling mechanism, well as long as my nforce4 goes. the fan of my chipset just went haywire weeks ago, it suddenly produce annoying sound (it spun at 6k rpm). this sound didn exist when this motherboard is new. the temperature when using with the fan spin at 6k is around 37C. as the fan is very annoying, i decide to take the fan out and run some benchmark to see whether it have any difference, to my surprise, it still more or less the same temperature even without the fan. but of coz, i maintain a good ventilation of my casing, maybe the fan which suck the air out behind the casing is helping it?

did that, it shows the same temp as Aux, but i seriously doubt its at 34c, i would say it'll be around 50? its darn hot.

bro is ur chipset overclockeD?
most of us here that are stil on nf4s are probably on the dfi boards, and voltage is pumped quite high. and the beter cooling u have, the higher u can hit when u oc.... of course running at stock will not overheat it...

Do you think this thing can fit in here ?

dont think can..unless u remove ur geminII
The chipset most probally would be block

With that cooler, is there need for the additional chipset cooler ??

I think the air from both fans are definitely more than enough to keep the chipset cool enough as long as there's a slightly better chipset heat sink installed .. maybe a Zalman passive chipset cooler will works..

is it really possible to check
some mobo dont supports it
the way i check i using a laser thermometer

the other is using the crud way
touchy-feelie
if its warm to touch
the temp is ~40++
it it is hot to touch
then it is prolly >50++ degree

No you cant...

Probably you can try HR05 SLI.

its really reallllly HOT. touch for few more secs it might even burn my skin lol.

@TerryZeroX



Chipset temp shud be the temp3 and HD0 is hdd temp

hmmm okay... my temp3 in smartfan shows 34c which i doubt so same reading as everest's Aux. Dang my mobo sux... can't even show proper temp.

just know that the Biostar T series all got the chipset cooler..run at 5XXX rpm..can adjust the speed of the fan?

and if change the cooler, which one is compatible and better..??Thermalright HR-05 or sli version..i just scare it that if my coming 8800gts card cant fit in..who got experience?

hhhmmm....... is anyone here mad enough to try THIS as a chipset cooler??

looking at the mountings it seems possible......

only thing is dunno where to get... karom's bulk no pricing on it yet

Ko sorang je yang gila nak guna heatsink tu untuk chipset.

hehe.. bukan dia sorang je gila...
aku pun rasa cam nak potong2 HSink kat MOBO nii.. panas melampau..

i dont have any idea y they can cum out with that heatsink heheh
very geli when look at it

geli?? y geli?? i think that it looks friggin sexy man...if price is right think i wanna pick up 1 for myself...
