Does anyone know where i can get some video card ram heatsinks, preferably from the UK, im gonna get the 9600xt but i hear that ram has no heatsinks and therefore is a bottleneck in overclocking. How far have you managed to overclock yours?

Seldom does lack of sinks hinder an oc. Sometimes the chips run cooler bare than with the sinks, you will have to do before and after benches and see. Having enough airflow over the chips is key regardless of sinks or no.

I agree...overclock and see how far you get with no ramsinks. I bought them for my modded 9500 and it didn't allow me to raise the memory clock any higher than what I already had with no sinks...so big waste of money in other words. I got them from www.jab-tech.com but I don't know if they ship to the UK or not.
