Depends on what setup you have as there are plenty minute chips that get hot (ie RAID, chips near the caps by the CPU). Best bet would be touch them after running the system for a while....still yet they left the VIA and ITE, amongst other chips bare.

I would be more concerned that the Harddrives and Vid cards stay cool.

You can see on the DFI Pic that they put plenty many heatsinks on their chips....
I took the Heatsink off of my Southbridgeand replaced it with a fan HS like on the DFI cause that sucker does get hot in any season!
