    Southbridge? Apparently, some chipset(s) from the late noughties had problems with it overheating. Only other thing I can think of is onboard graphics, but I think that’s unlikely.

      That is the Northbridge. The smaller black heatsink further to the left corner closest to the photographer is the Southbridge.

      You got it right the first time, except I think that’s the northbridge. Been a long time, can’t remember.
