got a few questions before I bite the bullet.

    I was planning on doing a 1090t build with the Asus Crosshair IV formula motherboard, but I've been reading about overheating issues on their northbridge I.E. idle temps around 60 degrees. Has DS been running into any of these bad boards? and if so are you swapping them out in the stress test phase for ones that run at intended temps? This is my main worry about the entire build pretty much, because I did want to go with an 890 board.

 What cooler is used exactly in the Air phase 1 upgrade? I was considering the H20 phase 2 with the Asetec 120mm setup, but not sure if dealing with that hassle would be worth it.

 Are the latest drivers used for motherboards, and videocards or is this something I have to do when it arrives to me?

 Thanks for any help in advance guys, and I look forward to being a new DS customer!
