Okay this is my second installation of a Scythe Musashi cooler on a Radeon HD4870.
Here's the Musashi
Disassembly:
Nekkid Video Card Pr0n!
Bah! This complicated! Me wanna SMASH!!@
Me feel better
Here's what the heatsinks that came with the kit look like test-fitted
Here it is installed on the card.
I did not attach the 100x100x12 fans that to the card. It is sitting in the top-most PCI-Express slot of my ABS Black Pearl case, so the twin
120mm fans that take air into the case are blowing air right on it. PAssive cooling FTW!
Bottom card runs at 42°C (8°-10° HIGHER than in my old Xclio case)
Top card runs at 45°C passively-cooled.
Not bad for an HTPC that's as quiet as a DELL, LOL!

Some more pics of the system
750GB RAID0 and 1.8TB of RAID 5 storage, YUMMY!
Had to bend a few fins on the Chipset Heatsink in order to get my Core Contact Freezer to fit right
Xfire goodness
Now all I need to do is finish the mirrored plexiglass plate that covers up the wires and the motherboard tray...
