would a thermaltake all copper GF4 hsf do much?

seeing as i have my card overclocked, do you think it would be a good idea to invest in one of these? they are all copper and feature a 50mm fan instead of the standard 40mm, and the all copper would be better for hieat dissipation no?

anyone bought one and liked/disiked it?

Cheers

i went and bought 1, the coolmod version as that was the only one they had in stock, still dont know how the LED hooks up to power though, also, the fan is on a 3pin plug, although my card only has a 2pin socket, i have heard the yellow wire is useless, could i cut the 3 pin plug off and connect it to the 2 pin, or with it being a larger, faster fan would it use more power than the stock one?
