Thanks Buff, but what moron decided to put another heatpipe on the IX38 quad gt looks like Ill have to get a heatsink for that and wait for the waterblock for the chipset to come out.
That looks pretty awesome, lets hope the performance matches![]()
found an early look into the X38

More previews over at Xtreme systems, now somebody shoot the guy who put those heat-pipes on the IX38 quad gt, it was bad enough water cooling the Quad gt but this is going to take the mic.![]()
Actually I'm not that sure that it will.
1. the 2 greatest heat producing bits (nb & PWM) aren't linked on this mobo unlike on the AB9 QuadGT
2. the newer digital PWM used supposedly runs a lot cooler than the older version.
Yeh I see that now I was gettign confused about that bit going up by the ram as I thought it was attached to a componet that gave off heat, jus looks like Ill need a block for the northbridge and a new heatsink for the southbridge and Im hoping that Ill be able to use my current pwn blcok as the spacing looks the same.
