@oese: Looking at your sig i see you use watercooling. I'm in the process of watercooling my system here too. Can you recommend coolers for the chipset?

I use
D-Tek FuZion v2, Swiftech MCR320 360mm Radiator, Laing DDC
Keeps my 9850be at ~50° at 1.45V under load, that is ~15°C better than the xigmatec.

I used a zern chipset cooler for the cfx nb, does a good job and costs you 9€ NEW directly from zern. should fit to the 790FX nb as well. sb i think can be cooled passively, or another zern nb cooler could do.

most important is the pwms anyway i think. at forumdeluxx, we thought that maybe the pwm-cooler for the dfi lp ut p35 would fit, seems like but noone tryed... the p35 has the same heatpipe/transpiper and alu-heatsink assembly as the m2r..

i'm cooling the chipset by the stock heatpipe and transpiper. for x2 that is just fine...

and i think one should not bother too much about high temps on the pwms.. they're digital and designed to stand temps up to 120°C. so something around 75°C should be ok.. but nevertheless, watercooled pwms are a fine deal
