General question about videocard HSF
Hey guys/gals, I had a question about putting a small heatsink on the back of videocards. I noticed in one of the other threads that some people had put a small ramsink on the back of their videocard's GPU. I was wondering how they attached it? (like w/thermal tape or epoxy) And I was also wondering if this was risky as far as shorting the bridges on the core?
I just got a set of 8 ramsinks from one of the links (victor off of eBay) posted in one of the threads, but I can only use 7 because one ram chip is right below the power connector on my Radeon 9500pro and I don't want to bend the connector up to make the sink fit, so after seeing all the pretty pictures I wanted to see about putting the extra on the back of the GPU.
Thanks for any help!
