Wait
I just have a quick question

Camouflage, I suppose you are planning to give this board a hard-core overclocking right? Because unlike others, I think the stock NB heatsink seems pretty good... I dont know, I might be wrong. Now if it could have been the size of the Maximus or Striker II boards, it would have been good enough dont you think?

And why did you put antartica over your power regulators? Thats a lot of cooling for them :P

I run a WC setup with a chiller - and I want to get the NB also under chilled water.

So I had to remove the whole heatsink ensemle to get a waterblock onto the NB...

The replacement parts for the mosfets may be a bit oversized - but looking nice & were the only ones I found so far in Europe to do the job.

BTW - I can't really believe the stock cooling should be fine - how much contact do You think will do a heatsink mounted with thermal compound looking like this:



If You don't plan to cool the NB with water I think it's highly recommended to replace the stock thermal compound with AS5.


@supa-fly : You can get the repair kit only from special developers who have killed at least 10 ASUS boards......
