Ramsink Adhesive

[DooLocsta]

I just ordered a eVGA 6600GT which does not have ramsinks on the chips, now I know that they don't really do a whole lot but I have an extra old pentium heatsink laying around and thought about dremeling it up a bit to put on the ram. My question is what can I use to stick them on that won't hurt anything and that I can possible get back off if I see fit.

Thanks

use arctic alumina adhesive (and do the old freezer trick to get em off)
or the superglue-on-the-corners-and-as5-in-the-middle-of-the-chips thing...

You can get thermal adhesive at a lot of online stores.

Why the arctic alumina adhesive? Wouldn't Artic silver adhesive work better?

Perhaps, but arctic alumina is a lot chaper and on ram I don't know if it will make that much of a difference if at all to make it worth the cost. Ram doesn't get horribly hot. If you had a heatsink on it, it would be sufficient IMO.

well i guess i wrote alumina cause i know it works with the freezer trick and its just the 1st one that popped in my head...
as5 is fine too (if thats what you wanted to hear)
