Newbie help plz - attatching a HSF to a GeForce2MX

[MikroMak]

Just started dabbling in overclocking. Whats the best way to attach a heatsink/fan to a videocard? I've got a GeForce2MX I'd like to put a heatsink/fan on and o/c. I've got a tube of thermal grease from radioshack but someone told me its not an adhesive so what do I use to attach the heatsink to the card?

Also. Its the Creative Labs 3D Annihilator 2 MX . It comes with DDR memory which seems like a pretty big deal considering all the MX cards are suppose to be SDR only. At default its 175/285 core/clock speeds. Why haven't we seen any reviews of this card anywhere?

Thanks alot

I placed my thin layer of thermal grease all over the center of the main
chip and then placed 4 small drops of super glue on the very corners. Placed a
heavy book on it over night and it is stuck for good. <and now voided warranty >

About reviews of the DDR vs SDR mx cards, there are some, and from what I gather, the
old SDR memory beats the newer DDR on the mx vid cards.

Thanks alot. i've got &quot;Silicone-Base Heat Sink Compound&quot; from radioshack... same stuff right? I've also got some plastic cement glue... that should work too? Thanks

Is that the white colored heat sink paste? That is what I used (was left over
from my alpha heatsink) and I used simple old Krazy Glue, but yours should work.

This may not be the best method, but it does work and is quite easy to do.
