Hello all, I have an FX-8320 with Cooler Master TX3 cooler. Motherboard is Biostar A960D+. Problem is the mosfets are getting very hot, up to 82C with Prime95 running for 5min+. I actually got them down to about 75C on load by turning the rear case fan around so it is blowing right on the mosfets.
Here is a picture of the motherboard:
You can see it has 3+1 setup which I know isn't ideal. But you notice it also doesn't have any cooling on the them. I am wondering if these would help:

If so I will buy a pack. Also, how do you use these? do you just tape them on to the black boxes using their included tape/glue?
