I knew about the SSDs (especially the 2nd m.2 slot on the board) using the chipset and impacting the temps and was considering it if it was a necessity but if not then I won't worry about it, will keep it in mind for the future tho. Only reason I'm so irritated by it is since it's a smaller diameter fan I can hear it pretty audibly amongst the other fans in my PC. I know it's different for a reason and my board aimed to be an affordable option. Yeah, I was just joking about how when I was looking into MSI and some other manufacturers I saw the chipset being placed below the 1st PCI-E slot. Devices connected to the chipset using PCI-e 4.0 heat up the chipset. If you want to lower the temperature for some reason, consider disabling pci-e 4.0 on the chipset, leaving your SSDs to run in pci-e 3.0 mode. Nothing special about the chipset position, most motherboards will position the chipset in that area, because it has to do with the maximum length of traces between CPU socket and the chipset, and other things. I wouldn't say your motherboard was "expertly" designed, it was designed like any other motherboard. Looks like the fan does its job keeping it below 80c It's fine, the chipset should be able to handle at least 85c continuously.

Hey, so I got a build last year and I had a pretty bad cpu cooler so i installed a noctua nh-d15 and the temps for my CPU improved quite well, however I'm an anxious doomsayer so I've been compulsively checking temps and stuff with HWiNFO anyway and noticed my chipset runs at 64-67 ☌ in low load and gets up to 74-76☌ whilst gaming (e.g.
