Im looking into getting a Swiftech MCX159-CU Copper C110 to replace my stock Northbridge cooler, but I was wondering what will happen if I take the current heatsink off (because it also connects to the mosfets next to the cpu)...will I have to cover the mosfets with other heatsinks? Im running a Coolit Freezone cpu cooler, so its pretty cool around the cpu (the cpu block is cool to the touch anyways).

Just wondering if this will work or not. I already took off the nb heatsink and replaced the thermal grease with AS5, but its still getting too hot. I had to put another fan blowing on it to hit 420fsb, so something needs to be done to keep it cool.
 
Only thing I can tell you, is that I have the MCX-6400V CPU cooler for my Athlon64 3700+ and it's superb. Very massive high quality and exellent cooling.
Before I had the Themalright XP-90, it was good, but it is too big, and on 2 motherboards I used it covered 2 of 4 of the DIMM's.
I also have Swiftech's VGA video card memory coolers and they are great atleast by quality.
