The new heatsinks are more about functionality than form, in fact, the one on the G1 and UD5H boards are apparently over-dimensioned for the chipset whereas the one on the UD3H will be used on most of their new 7-series boards. They're ok, but not amazing. Wait until you see the new R.O.G. boards, Asus has once again come up with a really nice heatsink design. That said, the regular Asus boards is an entirely different kettle of fish...
