    Which every other company has a tiny passive HS on. I know I will be swapping out that fan. I hope they don't go with an actively cooled HS on the northbridge

    Anybody think that the little HS between the PCI-E slots is gonna create some issues?

    Plenty of socket space for phase cooling, although the northbridge is pretty close.

    It's got 8 sata ports, 6 of them are parallel to the board under the southbridge.
