this type of VRM even with heat sinks is junk and eventually requires a direct fan for 24/7 daily especially with 16cores

The question, is 100$ worth saving to get stuck with this horrible basic board ?

I'd say that is definitelly not worth it and meaningless to put 5950 to A320. It could serve as an interim solution if one really really had to use that CPU and had nothing else at hand.
But it shows perfectly flexibility of PC - especially systems based on AMD.
