Im a newbie, and i just purchased a MSI P45 Diamond Skt LGA775 DDR3 PCI E PCI-E CrossFire mother board.

Its new, and comes with all instructions. When i brought it i didnt see anything mentioned about it being water cooled, now that i have it unpacked it i noticed that there is space for water cooling.. do i really need to watercool the mobo ? i wasnt going to water cool ?

Im a bit lost as what to do now..

Thanks in advanced

Yes, they are there if you do want to water-cool, but you don't have to.
 
I would remove the plate that has the pipes sticking in it as it will hinder temps if you are not watercooling.

I just did that m8, just undid all the 8 screws and prized it off, looks kinda chippy now though.. Wish i had brought the cheaper one now :rolleyes: oh well... learn by your mistakes.

Thanks for the heads up :)
