The only physical mod the board needs is removing the decorative covers to the mosfet/NB heatsinks.

Personally, I would do that, but I like the look of the decorative covers.


If you haven't yet, make sure you've peeled the very thin protective plastic sheeting off those three pretty covers boys. Doing so is a MUST do.

My only gripe with it is just that. That ASRock doesn't include a note or something Warning Users that this needs done to allow proper cooling. Those sheets themselves act as insulators and don't allow proper heat dissipation of those tin covers.

Well thats on all ASRock motherboard, it's not a big deal if the "ribs" are open,
but if it closes the ribs, then it is an insulator.

But proper housing cooling is required for every High End board and other components.

My runs cool and stable all the time.
990FX Extreme 9 MOD P1.70
AMD FX 8120 4GHz 1.25V
Thermalright HR-02
Patriot Viper 2x4GB 2133MHz
Samsung 850 EVO 250GB
MSI R7970 TFIII 3GB
CORSAIR VX550W
LanCool K62 Dragonlord
ASUS Xonar D2X

Yet it, protective sheeting, does not allow the tin itself to radiate/dissipate outwards. Thus for all intent and purpose "trapping' a lot of heat underneath.

ie: yours could be running even cooler
