heatsinks around the cpu socket

[pc_monkey]

I'm using HW Monitor to monitor my P8Z68_V LX temps and "AUXTIN" and especially ""CPUTIN" are running very hot. The latter has a temp of up to 93 degrees celcius when the CPU is idle but it goes down to 68 deg celcius when I use IBT to stress the CPU (my guess is that the CPU fan helps to cool down the chips around the socket when it pushes a lot of air trying to cool down the cpu). I have touched the ICs (or whatever they are called) around the CPU socket and they are really hot so I guess I have found where the high temps are coming from.



question is what are the heatsinks around the cpu socket called, and where can I buy them. It's these ones I need, specifically the one on the right and the bottom:

They're heatsinks for the VRM's (Voltage Regulator Module).

You're unlikely to be able to buy the ones you've shown as they're for a specific motherboard and probably aren't available separately.

FYI you aren't allowed to hotlink images.

You may post images providing they are hosted by a well known image hosting website, such as imageshack, photobucket etc.. Directly linking to images on other sites that are not expressly for that purpose (known as Hotlinking) is not permitted. Hotlinked images will be removed with an infraction notice issued. Repeat offenders will be suspended. The sharing of images from your own personal web-space is acceptable providing you are the owner and give permission to do so. However, the OCUK moderation team reserve the right to replace or remove any image that is suspicious of being hotlinked or unknowingly hosted by a members personal web-space, as it is not possible to identify those where permission has been granted or otherwise. Such decisions will not be overturned. To avoid complication, we strongly advise that all images are hosted by a image host as mentioned above, which can be easily identified as so. Images containing nudity, adult or offensive material, including swearing is prohibited. Please check your images before posting. No watermarks or URLs for sites containing content that wouldn't normally be allowed such as competitors, adult sites etc. Any images of such nature will be removed and your account immediately suspended or banned. Unless otherwise agreed by the moderation team, images must no wider than 1024 pixels wide.
