Answer» my computer
ASUS Crosshair MOBO
BFG 8400 GS videocard
1 40GB Pata HDD 1 80GB Sata HDD
1GB corsair memory (2X 512)
AMD 6000+ 64 X2
PC P&C 750watt PSU
Creative sound Max audio card.
Thermal take Armor SERIES case.
for the past 5 days my south bridge has been running hot 150F (60C) normally runs 120F i dont know what happened to make it run hot all my voltages are "normal" no failure has happened to my knowledge, no change in AIRFLOW in the case, or change in the room. the sb HS (which has no fins whatsoever) is heat piped to the nb hs which is heat piped to heat sinks around the CPU heat sink. the nb is not running hot (around 120F) it is a NEWER build, (it is my first build) has been running for close to 6 months. i can only guess that the heat sink is not seated on the chip properly for some reason. i do not know how to remedy this situation, besides installing a new heat sink. Frozen CPU
All cooling solutions including Southbridge....you may want to take some MEASUREMENTS.
