Reccomend some ramsinks for a 9500np? Please

Just like the title says, I'm looking to keep things a bit cooler since I'm going from my custom mounted Zalman 80, back to the stock cooling so that everything fit's inside of my XPC.

These guys might have something for ya...

Thanks they actually have a cooling sytem so that will work even better.

I just use some large, individual RAM heatsinks from Radio Shack. About $2 each and they seem to work really well.

Here's pic of them mounted on my 9700 Pro.

Looks good but 2 x 8 = $16, OCSystems has a thermaltake system that seems like it might improve on the stock cooling and it has integrated ramsinks for $19, plus they are local to me (city of industry, ca) and they are willing to do will call for no extra charge, so it's perfect for me.

Thanks though, I didn't know RS had that kind of stuff, I'll have to pay better attention next time I'm in one.

This is what it looks like:

unless you're volt modding your board, i wouldn't worry about ramsinks.

It's actually a 9500np->9700pro modded card, but I am not trying to o/c it i just want to try and keep things as cool as possible in that small case, thanks though I know that ATI did a good job on the stock cooler and of course a great job on the card

Personally, I would not deal with ocsystem after seeing their scammy $460 9700P + Zalman heatsink which you can do yourself for $345 or get as a Sapphire Ultimate Edition for $360.
