Im not gona be overclocking this card...yet, so i decided to leave the stock cooler for now, but i bought some thermaltake copper ramsinks, and much to my dismay, it looks to be that i can only fit 2 ramsinks on the card because the stock heatsink covers the other two as you can see here...

Now my question to you is, would it be ok to just mount the ramsinks to the top two, would it be pointless, or would it cause a problem later on down the road?:santa2:
 
its not going to cause a problem... but its not worth wasting the sticky stuff on the ram sinks... leave em you could oc them and they wont get anywhere near hot enough to need a sink

how about for the sheer pretty factor :)
 
lol I have the same card and I haven't slapped any sinks on it because how that cooler overlaps the ram. Don't think I will put them on anytime soon either.
