Can I replace the northbridge HS/F on MSI K7NG?

and if so, what should I get?

I have a K7N2G-ILSR, and I *do* use the IGP. I'd like to cool the IGP down, as it seems to be running in the 38-40C range, and I'm not that comfortable with that.

TIA,

it's possible to replace the stock fan. most people want to quiet it down though w/ a passive cooler but i was able to find an active one @ newegg. Just do a search for CCB-A1C there. the mounts are pretty standard on those things. the only personal experience i have though is replacing the fan on my mobo w/ a passive Zalman cooler to quiet it down.

Thanks for the links...the Vantec looks more like a VGA cooler...Would it fit/mount to an IGP chip on a mobo??
