cooling advice

[mrh2019]

Hi, I'm going to be water-cooling my north-bridge chip, I'm just wondering what you would recommend for cooling the south-bridge chip the and the regulator fet's,, as I will be removing the cooling pipes.
Thanks in-advance,,,

You shouldn't really need to cool the SB.

For the VRMs and MOSFETS around the CPU socket, are there not some clip on fans with your ASUS MOBO?

My system is watercooled on a heatpipe asus board but I don't yse the clip on fans at all. Try it without....you may not need them!

think you misunderstood the question,, I'm phase cooling the cpu, water-cooling the north bridge so will be taking of the pipe coolers but I don't what to cut or damage them.
I will need to cooling the sb chip as it will get warm,, increasing the cpu voltage will affect the heat generated from the fet's so they will need extra cooling..
