It is a tremendous benefit. Huge. Makes or breaks the board. A northbridge waterblock would be better, but a chipset HSF is a tremendous improvement. All the people that complain about limited FSB ranges on the NForce2 boards are typically those too cheap or lazy to upgrade the sink on their chipset.
I've done over a dozen NForce2 boards ... I know what I'm talking about here. Those with a sh!t NBHSF don't perform, but when you replace them they magically get better. Those bridges on those boards run HOT, and heat is a killer when overclocking.
