Before I start, I'd like to thank Kizmo for giving this great idea and credits goes to him.
There's plenty of people who has removed the heatspreader from A64 and after that's done, installing the heatsink may give creepy thoughts and sleepless nights to some of us.
Well, what if you buy shimm there? That's problem cause I haven't by myself seen any shimm products for A64, so now we can do it by ourselves, all we need is Radeon 9700 or 9800 card
The shimm which 9700/9800 series Radeon cards has is exactly same size as Athlon64 CPU. Just use somekind of knife to get it off from your video card and put some glue and glue it to your A64 CPU.
I'm too lazy to write anymore, but here's picture for you
