Where to get the GOOD STUFF to cool a RADEON 8500?

[Larry Quinn]

I've got a Radeon 8500 retail...

I want to put on the best HSF and mem heatsinks......

This will also be my first attempt using A.S. EPOXY!


So..help me spend my $!



I'm looking for the BEST air cooling solution I can get!!!!!

(Wow once bitten by the O.C. bug..you've had it!!!)

All from 1 vendor is a PLUS...but to get the BEST..I will split up the order between vendors.

http://www.zxmods.com/ has some awesome looking (and performing) ram sinks for the video card.
(if you wan you can buy me some for my radeon)

new egg has some nice $2 ram sinks

go here and in JAG, the first one should be a great cooler for
your radeon. it helps to have air blowing on the ram sinks
so maybe rig a fan to blow on the back.

i know there are no holes on it but you can be creative

Im kinda new actually to looking for this stuff. Ive never really bothered before, but heres an idea for the RAM on the Vid card...
Copper Heat Sinks. Here is another site you can look at... Look under the Video/Chipset Cooling, has alot to offer I think. Hardcore Cooling.

Well Im sure I could give you tons more, but I will let you look over these and see what there is and listen to some of the others that will reply Im sure. Ive heard the Thermaltake Crystal Orb is good, but I couldnt say myself.

I love thise RAM SINKS!!!....But..OUT OF STOCK!!!!

I like the look of that JAG cooler....
But I wonder if it will FIT!!!

Has anyone used that JAG on a Radeon yet???

I saw a "Kit" at The Heatsink Factory.

It has a CORB, 8 TIN Coated Copper ramsinks, and Arctic silver ALUMINA epoxy for $39.00

Does that seem steep to you?

Does the CORB fit W/O mods..???? Does it need to be epoxied or do the "Pins match the holes in the card??


Thanks to everyone that has posted thus far!!!
