There is passive cooling on all mosfets. Their temps depend upon the airflow and the air from your cpu hs/f. If your worried just add a spot cool. I heard that most Gigabyte boards run cooler than their competitors though.
Coolest Mobo

When I mean coolest I mean runs cool everywhere on the board. Including Mosfets and all other chipsets.
I am amazed that most Mobo companies do not add some sort of cooling to there mosfets and R## chips. Those things get so hot they can catch something on fire

So with that in mind.

Not everything has to run cool.... some of the components are designed to run up to like 105C.

Yeah, but the mosfets need some love. They run too hot on the board I have. They cause system shut downs when my CPU is OC.

Well pretty comparable, still a great board you linked there. Just a slightly different chipset. Still has the important SB750 so yeah, I would have no problems recommending that board.

I had been eyeballing it since it was in open box.

Plus it has the 8x8 CF support which is nice.
