The little chipset fan is driving me crazy when it kicks in during these hot summer days. I intend to replace it with water block.
I contacted watercool de asking them if they have compatible block for me. But they asked me for dimensions.

So, does anybody have exact size of the holes and spacing for the chipset heatsink.
Or if anyone have watercooled the chipset of the x570 unify (or ace) board, please share what water block you have used.

Thanks

What is your chipset temp in C when the fan kicks in?
 
#3,305 ·
62-63 C. It kicks in even when pc is idle.
Summer is hot, room temp is 30C. Last year summer I dont remember hearing the chipset fan. It is possible that the heatsink needs repaste or something, but if i disassemble the whole system for it, i prefer to remove the ****ty fan forever.

I changed the paste as soon as I got the motherboard, ambient temps in my office are 26/27C and chipset is at 61C and not turning (middle column at the bottom!)

Tried to do manual fan curve for the chipset fan from the bios, but it starts from minimum 20% pwm, so i switched to silent predefined profile.

Since the beginning I also intended to watercool the chipset. I also contacted watercool de, and Jacob, an ex employee and member of this forum, suggested one of those chipset coolers:
shop.watercool.de

for Chipset

for Chipset: HEATKILLER® NSB Rev3.0 Ni - HEATKILLER® NSB Rev3.0 - HEATKILLER® SB Rev3.0 - HEATKILLER® SB Rev3.0 LT
shop.watercool.de shop.watercool.de
He also informed that they come with with 2 of these fittings (look at the bottom of the page, last row).
shop.watercool.de

HEATKILLER TUBE Spare Parts

Expansion tank spare parts for the HEATKILLER TUBE reservoir. Including D5 bottom, DDC bottom, O-rings and more.
shop.watercool.de shop.watercool.de
He even told me the sizes that come with the cooler, but I can't remember which ones. You only have to buy the outstanding one. Sizes S, M and XS.
But I ended up not purchasing it, because in all honesty, my chipset rarely goes over 50C.
But I still have another plan for my chipset block, which is made in black aluminum, and it requires some milling.

I run the balanced profile, got a really hot summer here too and I still haven't heard it spin up even once, try a repaste maybe?

I am too lazy to disassemble the whole pc including water system in order to get to the heatsink to repaste it. I added one old 120mm fan running at low rpms blowing on the chipset. Switched to silent mode, so far couple of hours idling, working and gaming, I have not noticed the little fan kicking in. Max chipset temperature have been 58. Hope that will never hear the little **** spinning again :)

About the water block.. I gave up. I found some pictures of stripped down unify board - pcb. Calculated that hole pattern is about 37.5 x 17.2mm center to center. Diagonal is 41.3mm. Sent these numbers to watercool de and they told me that unfortunately they do not have such small block. Did a quick search for other popular brands water blocks, but could not find one that can fit these holes. (Pattern is too small).

Yep :) i see it about the chinese alternatives.
But it is better to wait on confirm from @teon
And if it really diagonal is 43mm than (and not 41.3 as i calculated) it would be possible to use watercool heatkiller - their minimal distance is 43mm.

The only problem using a chipset cooler, is that you have to remove the original chipset block that comes with the motherboard. And that area will look naked. And I don't like it.
That is way I had the idea to mill the original block in a certain area, so I can attach a cooler.
But yeah, lets wait for @teon

Question? Has anyone been able to run 4000mhz Cl16 2000 fclk stable no Whea warning 19’s in event viewer? If so what’s your secret? I’ve tried everything.
