I currently have an ASUS Maximus Formula (non-SE) motherboard, and am looking for a better way to cool the Northbridge. Running at a 333MHz bus speed, the Northbridge averages around 45 degrees or so, and when I bumped it up to 400MHz, it hit 70 degrees in the BIOS.

I've heard that ASUS doesn't attach the heatsink very well, and I've also heard it's a major pain to remove the heatsink as well.

Any suggestions?
