The ddr3 memory, 1600mhz@1.55v never gets hotter than barely warm to the touch. This is a product of the ram itself as the Mushkin redline ddr2 1000@ 2.05v got way hotter than these.
VRM's top out at 65c, better than most people are saying about the evga x-58, the vrms are overclocked up to 1067kbs too.
When you are open air with heat rising upwards you get very good cooling with only a bit of air movement.
I've never come close to kicking this rig.
