Northbridge Heat Sink
The Northbridge must be kept cool by using a heat sink. The heat
sink will dissipate heat generated by the Northbridge. Without the
heat sink, the Nor thbridge will overheat damaging both the
Northbridge and the system board.
The system board comes with the heat sink already installed on the
board. The copper-made heat pipe technology provides excellent
heat dissipation.
