Northbridge or southbridge?

[Rusti]

I just received my new motherboard:

It has a northbridge cooler on it that I am not sure about, and no southbridge cooler.

I also bought the zalman blue northbridge cooler.

Do you guys think I should put the zalman cooler on the southbridge, or do you think i should replace the asus northbridge cooler and put on the zalman?

Use the Zalman on the North Bridge. It will do more good then on SB. Anyway on SB its not needed. It does not get that hot (SB).

from what i can see southbridge coolers can be a pain aswell as if there not small they can get in the way of things plus the northbridge is the real loaded one southbridge isnt really ever that hot which is why most motherboards dont have any cooling on it.

Guessing that the stock cooler on the NB is bigger, leave it like that. Place the Zalman on the SB as youve already bought it.
