Well, I have bought a Ultra 120 Extreme that will be replacing my Q6600, and I have also bought an HR-03 Plus that will be replacing my stock evga GTS 8800 640MB cooler.

My question for you all is, do you use the stock coolers when you are building your computer together for DOA checking?

Does the warranties get voided for using non-stock heatsinks?

By the way, anyone have a nice video tutorial for the removal and cleaning process of the GTS 8800? I've read the Thermalright tutorials on how to add the HR-03 plus and such but it is not very detail on how much "Arctic" material to use for cleaning and applying on the RAMsinks.
