Intel® Q35/Q33/G33/P35 Express Chipset Thermal and Mechanical Design Guidelines
—For the 82Q35, 82Q33, 82G33 Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) and 82P35 Memory Controller Hub (MCH)
This document presents the conditions and requirements to properly design a cooling
solution for systems that implement the (G)MCH. Properly designed solutions provide
adequate cooling to maintain the (G)MCH case temperature at or below thermal
specifications. This is accomplished by providing a low local-ambient temperature,
ensuring adequate local airflow, and minimizing the case to local-ambient thermal
resistance. By maintaining the (G)MCH case temperature at or below those
recommended in this document, a system designer can ensure the proper
functionality, performance, and reliability of this component.
