Just go on ahead and overclock it to see what speeds you can reach first. Then test with games and benchmarking software. Sometimes when video cards will overclock to impressive speeds with just the stock heatsink, sometimes it won't. Give it a try.

You can attach your heatsinks onto your video card using either "Arctic Silver Epoxy" or double sided thermal tape. The epoxy stuff is just like thermal super glue, slap some on, then slap your heatsinks on. Most people mix this "Arctic Silver Epoxy" with regular "Arctic Silver" thermal paste so that the bond isn't too strong, just in case you want to remove the heatsinks later.
