Another confirmation that the whole heatpipe thing motherboard manufacturs are making is a marketting only thingy. Serious overclockers has no other way than going with third party real heatsinks

I'm interested to know how I could do that, as my motherboard is also RMA. Should I contact ASUS directly?

What an affirmation when the X48 with its native 400MHz FSB support for quadcores is soon coming, with DDR2 support despite what it was claimed (remember that also X38 is not offically supporting DDR2)
