Then, maybe it's time for you to change the chipset heatsink liao...

Use a 3rd party chipset heatsink...

But stay away from Coolermaster Blue Ice 2... mad.gif

Find any other chipset heatsink... thumbup.gif

Or, in other way, you can just buy a 40MM fan and find a way to fit it on top of the Chipset heatsink, that will decrease you're chipset heatsink a lot... wink.gif

dont forget to put a thermal paste get AS5 or the new zalman thermalpaste.that shud help cool things off thumbup.gif

yeah....i've done that alraedy...it dropped temps by 5'C... guess its cause this Mobo is s-478 with PCI-e..haha...

dont think will be installin chipset cooler netime soon...cause just finish fixing everything...took long time to make it look good...
and even decorate the 40mm fan with highlighter so reacts with uv...
and to those who wanna do that...i found that Pink and Yello react best.... blue not so good... whistling.gif

If can use screw, guna la screw...

If cannot, then use the cable tie liao...

But make sure u use the black cable tie, don't use the white one liao or you'll make you're rig look ugly through the sidewindow... laugh.gif

Alahai, buy one 40MM fan, then some cable tie, that won't cost you alot liao...

If you want, i can give you a CoolerMaster 400MM fan for free, now, the only thing that u have to do is to buy some cable ties to lock the fan on top of you're northbridge heatsink... rclxms.gif

Capiche? icon_rolleyes.gif
