I got some OCZ copper ramsinks from SVC.

Good prices and good service.

The Revoltec BGA Freezers looks cool, you'll have to find a US supplier yourself though

German article about Revoltec BGA Freezer

rofl, check out afrotechs site, it is full of ghetto mods , i guess the penny heatsinks wouldnt be too bad, afterall in my experiences ramsinks arent worth more than $10.

Heh yeah they are even more worthless on GDDR3

Someone tried that before and it killed his card. Don't even risk it.

How would pennies superglued onto RAM kill your card unless you are using conductive thermal paste and get some on the pins of the RAM (which isn't even possible with BGA ram which doesn't need heatsinks either).

Pennies are mostly zinc, not copper.

 

[ChingChang]

which is why you look for old pennies which are almost all copper

Or, you can spend a couple bucks and go to a hobbycraft store and get some half inch wide strip copper. Cut it up into pieces and bend into |_| or square shape. It does a half decent job.

Home depot also sells square hollow aluminum, which you can just cut and glue onto the ramsink, its a little more expensive, but is perfectly flat and only requires cutting and no bending.

Those extra 5-10 Mhz make all of the this worth it I am sure.

He says that you need a mixture of thermal paste and superglue, if i were to do this i wud use some thermal epoxy

I dunno, after a bit of OCing on my x800pro memory, while in game the memory is scortching hot! It burned my finger someday i will put ramsinks on it, after i get my WCing setup in my case (waiting on a couple more pieces
