They don't work because there is a , at the end of one link and a . at the end of the other. You can't punctuate links.

Just look at the memory on the card. If it's TSOP (long) memory modules, then get the longer heatsinks. If it's BGA (short square) memory, then get the short square heatsinks.

Question is, why? All the BFG ones I saw, NU included, came with a heatsink that covered the memory chips also.
 
yah, but im taking the HS of my BFG 5900 nu next week because im getting a gpu waterblock for it, so i want something to cool my memory. does anybody know what type of memory is on my 5900nu. i want to order the ram sinks tommorow but i dont want to take the HS off my 5900 yet.
 
I just made some out of some old cheap thermaltake RAM cooling kit... dont spend too much money on them the memory on the 5900nu dosnt even get hot as is...I ran mine for a wile volmoded to 2.82 and at nearly 1000MHz with no sinks and they were not even warm to touch.
 
wow 1000mhz with no HS. so i dont even have to worry about getting these? its kinda pointless then isnt it?
