Default Chillin the the north and south side G.

Well when I installed the A7N8X mobo from asus I noticed a reliable but ugly huge heatsink on the northbridge without a fan. Well in the spirit of mods and good looks I jumped online and found a solution! It was from Vantec and is an all copper version with ball bearing fan instead of aluminum with a sleeve like what is on the abit boards. As everyone knows copper cools allot better than aluminum and ball fans last longer so naturally I ordered the cool copper version! Cost was $12 bucks from a guy off ebay and it also came with 2 passive heatsinks for whatever other needs you may have, I choose to install the largest one on the southbridge, not that it needed it but because I had it and it looks cool anyways the install was cake as shown in the pics, looks good and cools much better than the stock version which used to be very warm to the touch after gaming and now the new copper sinks is cold in comparison. I can reccomend this kit to anyone! Check it out, worth the cash
