I'm tired of 250 dollar mobos with a bunch extras I don't use and that usually do average overclocking.
The hottest component on the IP35-E is the NB heat sink. A heat pipe cooler must also rely on cold air circulating around the fins to extract the heat. That's why I use the Big Typhoon with a down-firing 120 x 38 mm medium speed Panaflo to cool the NB and CPU. Maximum temperature is 44C (TC placed at the base of the IP35-E's NB heatsink with Orthos Large mode/78F ambient). Actual chip temperature is probably 50C.
MOSFET heat sink is only luke-warm. Abit software shows peak PWM temperature of 52C.
