Hi guys
I bought this Gigabyte MA69VM-S2 board 1 year ago and never set it up until recently. It is an AM2 board with a 690V chipset..

Awesome performance. Only concern I have is the northbridge temp..when I put my finger on it's roasting. I'm worried I may have let the thermal paste/pad (if there is any), for too long before I powered it up.
So basically I just wondered if anyone else has this board, and if they notice the chipset getting hot. If it's natural fine, but I can't put my finger on it for long without it burning and I really don't fancy leaving it running like that. Any ideas? Thank you.
