What is the temperature?

 

Also might be worth pointing a fan at it, not a very technical solution but may do the trick, only one way to find out :)

Buy a 60mm fan and attach it to the northbridge. You could also try applying new thermal paste.

No idea but if it is overheating then somewhere must be found otherwise you could just leave it

 

If something has a heatsink on it then obviously must generate sufficient heat to require the heatsink in the first place, maybe it is normal :P

My northbridge has been hot for iver a year and it's still fine, and if it needs a heat sink it'll probably use it @

Stock coolers - The sound of bare minimum
