I got my board back from RMA and finally set it up this weekend. I am running a QX6850 and my PWM temps are out of control. My pwm temps hit 80+ during prime95 then the board shuts down. Do I need to set-up the transpiper? Where is the best place to put a fan to cool this b**ch down? Here is a shot at 8x475(3.800ghz). Specs in sig ,any help would be appreciated.
Those temps are out of control mateHow do they compare to your first board?
A fan over the NB and PWM would certainly help, but I'd be more tempted to take off the heatpipe assembly, and check whether the thermal paste has been applied properly.
Generally these boards seem to be very good in that department, but there's always the chance of a one off.
My chipset and PWM don't go above 50c and that's taking into account warm ambients.

Well on my NB and my PWM I just brought a hard drive cooler and removed the two 40mm fans out of it, I then screwed one to the heatsink on the PWM's and another blows through the fins on the NB heatsink, for 40mm fans they are do an excellent job, especially compared to yours, and completely quiet.
