Anyone else has that motherboard ? If you do, are you having unusual temperatures on your northbridge ?
It seems a lot of people has that problem, and I was just wondering if it's even pssible to change the northbridge's heatsink, or to reseat it.

EDIT: Argh. Can a mod move this to the appropriate section, please ?

I make mod of my chipset.It is look like this.
This small fan is cooler master blue ice chipset cooler.
When i look in hardware monitor temperature fore chipset is same 79-80 deggrees like before,but when i touch northbridge whit my finger is not hot(before install this fan after 2-3 seconds need to remove my finger from chipset becouse is very hot).I think this is crap diagnose of motherboard sensors.

Sorry for my english,i hope you will understand me.

Yeah, the stock cooler isn't very good and loose as well. I have a 120mm fan zipped tied to my case so that its blowing cross mine. I also removed the Gigabyte logo as well. Other OCN members who have the board also read 79-80C on the TMPIN2 sensor. Some say its a faulty sensor and that's what I think it is because it doesn't change with load or with a fan blowing across it. One member actually called Gigabyte and was told it was normal.

Here are a couple other threads dealing with this issue:

Thanks, bro.
Yeah, I figured the sensor was stuck, but the northbridge one isn't, and it's pretty hot. I'll strap a small fan to it... someday.
I have my Kaze Jyuni blowing right on my 4870... I tried to install the stock sidefan on the higher fan spot on the side panel, and temps got down quite a bit(about 5 degrees).
But the noise was goddawful.

I have the motherboard and it is always 80c, I don't think it will affect performance....since I don't overclock and it is with an Athlon X2 240 inside family's web browsing box.
