None of those are really good options, but if you are determined to use one of them, epoxy would be the most acceptable. What you really need is Arctic Silver Thermal epoxy. You can order it from www.InflowDirect.com. You can have it overnighted if you are really impatient, but you should do it right the first time and not screw it up with normal epoxy, super glue, or silicone and destroy your vid card at the same time.

The best thing to do is pick up some high performance thermal grease...put a thin layer covering the whole chip...take some sort of napkin or cloth and wip of a little bit on each edge. That is where you are going to put the super glue. Now put on the heatsinks. Do one at a time...putting either presure down on each one with your hand for 30 mins each or put a 6 pound weight on it. one at a time...be patient.
