I put an old 486 fan on top of mine, i have found the southbridge needs a
small passive heatsink on it (memory coolers are ideal) as for changing it
completely i dont see why not, the cooler you keep it the stabler the system
will be ;-) Cooling memory also helps alot.

Has anyone replaced the Northbridge heatsink on the A7N8X deluxe? It's
rather unsightly and since it's a passive heatsink I was wondering if it
was
common practice to replace it. I was thinking about replacing it with a
vga
heatsink, like the iceberg or something.
