Default Mobo Extreme Air Cooling
I just got a $20 Thermaltake Active NB cooler, it came with 2x "south bridge heatsink", which is quite useless because of their size (RAMsink size, blue). I also have 8 pieces of coolermaster copper HS, small so quite useless as well.

I also got some AS5-H (adhesive), by using my wonderful electrical sesor, I found that AS5-H is not electrical conductive

So what should I do when I have:
AS5-H, useless RAMsink, free time on my hand

The answer is easy, use useless RAMsink to cool useless IC

NB=North Bridge, HS=Heatsink, SB=SouthBridge, IC=Intergraded Circuit

Mobo with new NBHS and stock SBHS


AS5-H NBHS to SB


HSed voltage IC


HSed onboard LAN, Soundcard


Extreme Air Cooled Mobo

Veeeeeery nice. I have AS5-H and spare copper... Perhaps I should give it a go. Since my southbridge has no cooling on it I don't think. I also have many spare cooling items. What is the difference between AS5-H and AS5 that makes AS5-H non conductive? I know AS5 is a small amount conductive, and thats why if it is on a bare part it breaks it.

hm I can't tell any difference besides it glues stuff... but my electrical sensitive pen can sense a closed circuit. So I put my hand on one side of the AS5-H, and pen on the other, it doesn't light up. Maybe the glue has seprated the silver molecues

Extreme eh

Cooling transistors isn't too bad an idea. My friend's board+CPU blew when the transistors melted. They have high heat tolerance but I'd think the ones around your CPU are responsible for generating Vcore so not a bad idea I guess.

You could use it to cool the power regulators, if it'll fit.
