i can easily put my fingers on every peace of copper (mosfet,nb,sb) on that mainboard, and it's rather cool.
there are 2 possibilities:
1. your phenom is stressing the mosfets/northbridge much more than my x2 5050e or
2. your board is not ok
have you got annother cpu which you test the board with?
and btw, whar are your ambient temps and which case are you using?
mine are about 20-22°C and the board is in a sharkoon rebel 12 with a 25cm fan blowing at it.
