So I bought this motherboard (MSi 970A-G43) for my new build and I didn't realise it didn't have a heatsink on the mosfet, does anyone know where I can get a heatsink that will fit the board.

Note: I will add pics if needed on my tablet so I can't be bothered doing it at the minute.

Thanks for anyhelp, British-Army

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] should do it. Id only put this on if your overheating the mosfets or planning to overclock your CPU

Be aware that the 970A-G4# boards have dodgy VRMs with or without heatsinks. The G46 comes with a heatsink, but that's not always enough to solve the problem.
