I'm going to be getting a eVGA 680i A1 and I want to replace the heatsink for the NB and SB. Does anyone know of some really good ones? Keep in mind, the SB heatsink has to allow a 8800GTX to fit.

Isn't that a heatsink only, with no fan. I don't know for sure or not, but shouldn't I get one with a fan.

if you get that thermalright it will be just as good as getting a fan. its a very well made hs that dissipates a lot of heat.

The Thermalright comes with zip-ties to tie a 70/80mm fan to it.

i have a 90mm fan on mine... it is tight and ugly but you can make it work

*edit* i would also like to say the only reason i have a fan on it is not to cool the heatsink as it does very well by it self but to move the air around by the X1950XT power components. Before the X1950XT this heatsink with no fan worked wonders better than stock cooling... But this is on my nf4 board, i have no idea how hot these newer chips get.
