\"As many computer users know, an unhappy chipset makes for an unhappy computer, with issues ranging from random lock-ups and reboots to the dreaded BSOD. So what exactly is it that makes for an unhappy chipset? Is it possibly just depression from the grey, overcast weather?

More often than not, especially in today’s complex chipset world, one of the leading causes for your chipsets’ woes is heat. The most logical solution would be to just slap on a bigger, beefier heatsink to combat the heat, much like you would a CPU; but with chipsets comes a reduced chip size area and limited mounting options, is there really any option for users?\"
