    Step 1) Find unused heatsink from a pentium, 486, or whatever.

    Step 2) Find a hacksaw.

    Step 3) Cut heatsink into appropriate sized pieces.

    Step 4) Use thermal epoxy to stick heatsinks to graphics ram.

    Costs a lot less!

    Done that one meself Gerry worked well ,i didn't have epoxy tho.
    I doubt you will see any difference between that method and using those ones that you buy.

    i assume Artic Silver thermal epoxy is great for these mods, but can i mix some of my atric silver2 and say superglue or will ig just blow up in my face ? :)

    Strat Why not just fill most of the centre area with the artic silver 2 (recommend getting some 3) and then creating a border around it out of the superglue? im sure that will work quite well.
