Although attaching a fan over nb did bring the temp down by at least 5 or so, that did not stop the shutdowns either..
Rather than going through asus service to get a refurbished board, I decided to try out another brand (evga). So, fingers crossed I guess...
I am gonna get one of those 40mm fans for northbridge and see what happens.
Just gotta figure out how I am going to attach it since my cpu cooler is slightly blocking upper screw holes.
Thanks for all the help you've given me and hopefully, I won't have to come back and bump this thread. :)

New one is less than a month old and I had used the old one for a year or so before I rmaed it.
No.
I have everest and realtemp installed and according to those programs, core temps and gpu temp only go up to 55 or so at maximum for the stuff that I do.
Hi, I have been experiencing random shutdowns recently.
I am fairly certain that it is a heat related issue as it only happens on a hot day. Once the pc shuts down, the only way to get it started again is to switch off the psu for a few seconds, then turn it back on.
I have tried replacing...
what did i expect? new replacement???
even if it is not the new replacement, i certainly wasnt
expecting refurbished one with the scratch all over it, not to
mention they forgot to send me the remote + power cord that
i originally sent....
just wasnt expecting this from the company as big as samsung.
ive recently rmaed qx9650 and wd 1tb drive. both were like a year old.
with wb's advanced rma, i received the new drive via 2nd day shipping.
pretty much the same thing with the intel, was given a new qx9650 (new stepping)
via 2nd...
i just received t240 replacement,
funny thing is, the replacement was refurblished instead of new.
i called them up and asked why i was given a refurblished one.
they said after 90 days, theres no way the part can be replaced with new.
huh, some warrranty they have
used about 5 days.
has everything that came with (upc cut off)
$65 shipped via usps priority.
i will take paypal payment.
