Few mods on NF7-S(cooling)

dcesther · Jul 23, 2003

Got an ABIT NF7-S last week from mwave, what can I say.....
Love this board but it is really hot when running especially in sunny CA.
Moseft cooling

South Bridge

North Bridge by Alpha

Alpha on CPU also

thank you

looks good...does it help in cali?
Did you have to cut the moseft hs or was it a package?

I am looking at gettin this board with a barton 2500+
what do you think of its setup...ie overclockability, bios controls of cpu & fsb etc

that looks awsome... great job man.

Southbridge HS is great - did you make that? How is it attached?

Stupid question but are there fans on the nb and CPU or not? Nice job on the mosfets and sb, post a linky if you bought them.

Very nice. I, too live in "sunny" (mild term for it) southern CA. It's hot as blazes here. hard for OCers to do a damn thing without AC.

I would like a Link also

Nice! I've also got an NF7-S, and absolutely adore it. Maybe I should add some extra cooling, to reward it for the fine service it's given me.

Looks like a little model of downtown New York.
Looks good!

The south bridge heatsink was purchased through another country (my mom brought it back for me). And yes there are fans on the NB and CPU.

Wow, you're hyper....

Thats an interesting way the heatsink clips to the SB....

dcesther · Jul 24, 2003

Well.... My alpha serves me better than any other HSF. And plus... it looks better than any HSF in the market now (by its appearance).

SlackerTK421 · Jul 24, 2003

Nice job on the Mosfets and the NB. And I agree that the alpha does look sexeh. I have one on my TH7II.

YviE · Jul 24, 2003

I especially like the mosfet heatsinks! great job!

Mico · Jul 24, 2003

I like dat black hs on the cpu...looks...'cool'. (Hehe...get it?)
Looks like a nice job. I wish I had the time/money/supplies for something like that.

Nasdaq · Jul 24, 2003

Looks good great job!

Ron Jeremy · Jul 24, 2003

Everyone else has said it already, but I see no harm in saying it again: Great job! All the individual mosfets look great, and you did a clean job installing everything. I'm in Santa Barbara, and feel the heat of sunny "SoCal" as well. Thank god for air conditioning and cooling mods!

Spanko · Jul 24, 2003

how about a link on where to get those mosfet heatsinks and the northbridge heatsink especially...
