Hey, I need some new heatsinks for some bga ram. Any suggestions? It would also be really cool if someone could tell me what ram heatsinks are used in this article at Silent PC . I think that those would look cool in my system, as I have alot of my components UV painted, and they would look sweet, glowing in the dark. Thanks!
 
those look like these or at least similar to them. i used these on my 9800pro and i like them a lot. the aluminum doesn't tarnish like copper does, plus if you want to get funky with it later on you can have them anodized. they do get quite hot when i run intensive stuff so they seem to work well, i also like the silver look to them on my card, matched the stock hsf perfectly. they feel solid too, i looked at the copper ones but i was afraid i might brush against it and bend the fins. i've never tried the tweakmonster sinks but a lot of people like them. the design is just a tad too funky for my taste tho, they remind me of risk pieces.

They like being kings.

My copper OCZ BGA sinks should be here soon. I got the OCZ flower sinks for my mosfets and whatever else. Gonna have to get funky with a small fan to cool the underside of the video card. There's enough fans running in my case that will keep the top of the card cool.
 
Hey, thanks guys! I ended up getting the Tweakmonsters, as I love the shine, and they come highly recommended.
