I have FX6300 and MSI 970-G43(I know everyone hates that mobo :D - but I didn't know that before I bought that). I don't plan overclocking the processor. And I know the mobo doesn't have VRM heatsinks. I can't go for mobo replacement because the online store is not offering me another product for exchange. All I can do is - I live with the mobo and the processor. Is it okay? Or is there anything else I can do? Like installing after-market heatsink like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835708011 ? Is it worth the bucks paid?
 
The heatsinks should help, but don't expect to overclock.

Please keep it to one thread per topic, creating multiple threads for the same thing only serves to confuse people.
