    Video Card Memory Heatsinks??

    Ok I have a Visiontek 4400 I need to find some place sells some heatsinks that would fit on these Memory chips, or a quick guide on how to make them anything!

    I am stuck at 308/639 on my OC.

    As always exercise caution when adherign ramsinks to a video card. I've seen photos where the ram itself has come off the pcb.

    The very best are the Tweakmonster tin-coated copper BGA ramsinks

    Followed by the original:

    Then by the dying breed of Millisec ramsinks (going out of business)

    http://www.millisec.com/vicivmemcool.html


    And finally the Alpha Wing-Fin GF4 ramsinks

    I highly recommend Arctic Alumina Epoxy to attach any of these, since it's non-conductive, and also less messy. Good Luck

    308/639 sounds a bit low. Have you added the ram sinks yet? Has it improved your oc?
    I just got the Visiontek 4400 a few days ago and got it running at 315/680 stable. I added cheap homemade ram sinks and another sink behind the core. Sweet *** gaming!

    $23 is too high for those 8 ram sinks.
    You can get the EXACT same 8 ram sinks for only $16 ($2 each) at http://www.1coolpc.com
