Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best-selling in Memory & Chipset Cooling
I got this to keep my 990fx north bridge cool. These chips run very hot, especially with 4 memory modules. I use RAMdrive, so that makes it even hotter. After installing this, the chip is tamed down to the level of a 970 chip. After being over 40° nearly all the time, it never strays far from 30° now. I'm very impressed with the quality of the sink, and the 8 CFM deep fan (20mm) pushes lots of air quietly. The sink is made out of solid copper right down to the mating surface. Good product and well worth the money. My holes were 63mm apart, and it just barely fit, but it did. The board I used it on was the ASrock Killer Fatal1ty 990FX.

the chipset used to overheat itself until the computer didn't post anymore, I had constantly to take out the motherboard from its case to heat the chip again with a hot air gun until the soldering balls between the chip and the motherboard got melted and and then push the chip with some solid tool against the board for a while until it cools down, making with it an amateur reballing. Well, now we have a month testing with the northbridge copper cooler, even with the case cover on, and I think it solved the problem. Good deal.
