What to cover ram chips with heatsink

[tweakboy]

Right now my GPU block is in the loop ut not connected to video card.

If I take out the whole heatsink and fan of card the Memory chips 8 of them I believe will be exposed.

What options do I have as far as vram cooling. Is there a big heatsink that doesnt block the GPU block or something. Thank in advance.

Just make sure you have some air flow over them and you should be good to go.

Edit: I just remembered I used these with my 8800gt/Accelero cooler and they worked great. They should work just fine with your gtx460.

These looks good. Just peel the sticker and stick it to the vmemory?

Do you need water cooling to benefit from these heat sinks?

i think the ones happy posted would work better as it looked like they had a dedicated TIM not just peel and stick. but im not sure.
