Did you have any of these problems too ?

Love newegg..Looks like your going to have a good time..thats a nice gaming rig..Wish I could afford a new,well anything,but I so want a FX8 core and a better card,had this Xfx 7950 since new 3 years ago this Board the newest piece and thats over a year old..but it is what it is.
HEAT issues, I read such reviews on heat also,people saying the South bridge is melting the board,and is burning fingers..And as you read on,they have 0 fans.
Any board is going to get hot,if you game,its going to get real hot.My case has 4 fans,1 in the front[HDS],1 on the side[mobo ,graphics,ram, SB],2 on top,yea it gets warm after a good game session you can feel the heat,but if you have a good case,with a couple of fans in the right spots,you will have no problems.
You will be pleased.
