Title: G1.Guerilla chipset temp
Post by: bojer on May 02, 2012, 04:58:03 pm

Hi guys,

is here who have this board and tell me what is the real temp on this passive cooler with 5 green led's (not from BIOS) ?
Because my BIOS (F2) show info 39-40°C but if I touch this cooler is hot. Don't have home digital thermometer so I can't say real temp of this passive cooler. This temp is still the same if I play or PC idling. Useless heated my graphics card (6990) because all is too much close :-/

Hi

This is a picture of the Northbridge heatsink and so it will get quite hot during use. It is a good sign that the cooler is hot as it proves that it is well connected and doing it's job.
