The chipset on the motherboard is usually cooled passively, or by a small (noisy) fan. Under normal circumstances this will provide sufficient cooling.
But in overclocked systems, it may be on the low side when heat generation increases and the temperature rise. Especially if you want a passive system and/or do not have much airflow in the cabinet, you have to consider water cooling for your system.
A water cooling block needs no airflow to cool the chipset, plus it heatsinks much better than conventional cooling solutions. This gives you both peace of mind and can increase your overclocks!
EK motherboard water blocks are designed to provide high performance and minimal restriction, so your chipset gets superior cooling without affecting your flow significantly!
This head can be used on many older AMD motherboards where the mounting holes are located close to the chipset.
