Alright, I have a Maze4gpu, and it doesn't fit over ramsinks very well.

I need a way to make it taller that will only require a few hours.

Like, I have a maze3AMD coldplate here, could I just add that under it?

I mean, I know it wouldn't transfer heat as well, but I need this so my hoses will go on better.
 
Gah... I'd just as soon lose the ramsinks before sticking a half inch of heat-insulation in between my block and the GPU.
 
Well, I would, but I'm afraid it'd rip the ram off.

Plus, this ram runs really hot.
 
The cold plate is a possible idea, youll probably loose efficiency a little bit, or maybe even quite a bit. But couldnt you just trim down the ramsinks?
I supose of they are on the card that might not be a very good idea....

Well, it's on there.

I'm almost sure it will be fine to just run the card with, right?

I mean, this is kind of a speak now or forever hold your peace kinda thing.
