Yo guys is there a way to pop on a zalman nb cool on my 8rda+ without having to take out mb. I would rather not unhook everything , take out mb and put on cooler. it would be a pain in my arse is ya know what i mean or maybe you dont cause a lot of you love taking the thing out
Its odd, maybe i dont need one. My stock nb heatsink is cool to touch

i just bought the new blue zalman northbridge today, replacing hte stock fan on my nf7-s. it added about 3 more degrees to the board temp, but that's much of the problem for getting rid of the fan sound.
