NB and MOSFETs

stan03 · Jul 23, 2003

Are there mounting holes for the northbridge on a GA-8KNXP board? I don't know how to tell... and what are MOSFETs? Do intel boards have them? Should i get some heatsinks for them?

yup, there are mounting holes around the northbridge, most newer boards do. i believe mosfets are voltage regulators? all motherboards should have them. putting heatsinks on them may help (help regulate voltages better), but i have no idea how much.

Yes, this one has Northbridge heatsink mounting holes. Not all Gigabyte Mobo's do.

Edit: nice choice, it has the Promise RAID controller

thanks

can someone post links to nice nb coolers and mosfet coolers? I don't have any heatsinks to cut up bc this will be my first homebuilt computer... i can't find that "SLK of northbridge" cooler... and that one in the other thread made my alpha looks cool too.

Best -> Linkage Has a NB cooler and MOSFETS and PPL heatsinks. I bought one and im satisfied 110%.

And you cant go wrong with a 9.84 reseller rating. They are one of the best companies ive delt with.

Or you can get an sk-6+ from there for 8$ and get the mosfet heatsinks seperate for 12$

Dunno any, but if you find out say so here as i'm looking too.

I got the GA-8IRXP. Bad NB, nice extras. Did someone say 4 disks all on their own cable?

EDIT: 34 dollars.... is that good or bad deal?
