I could explain why the "mosfets" (actualy the voltage regulators (unless im wrong and it has like a 25W audio card)) are so hot and unevenly heated. but thats gonna take to long and dear god they need a HS.

hey, explain! i'm sure me and the other ferengi would like to know

btw my 8rda+ is much happier with a case fan blowing across the mobo and northbridge - I must be cillin' those mosfets

well.. since im gonna be getting one of them boards.... i might start to think about it...

they are all unevenly hot becasue they are different regulators.... they probbly have a few that are 5v and 1 is 12v and the others are for vcore and stuff... and each is drawing different amounts..

but seeing how im going to be getting one of thies boards... i will be planning to put a HS on them. and whatever else i see fit.
