Cpu air cooler with replaceable fan
Go to solution
Solved by RazerZ,
Since your motherboard has a poor thermal design and struggles to handle a high TDP processor under load (read this: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/330572-30-970a-warning),
I would recommend a top-down/ down-draft style cooler which blows cold air directly over your VRMS and will prevent the MOSFET from over heating and causing throttling issues.
These two coolers showed good results, as tested in one of tom's hardware's reviews:
Enermax's ETD-T60-VD

and
Scythe's SCKC-2100

Both have replaceable fans.
