$10 advice

I picked up (or more, had shipped to me) a pack of 8 copper ramsinks from Newegg for around 10 bucks. They've been awesome for the money, I mounted all 8 on my Radeon X700 and was able to squeeze another 35MHz out of my mem clock. Chuck them in your cart with your next purchase, they're awesome. :thumbsup:

My performance was noticeably better to the point of me waiting for a new videocard, and getting a proc right now. But oh god, I want that 6800GS.

Ohh... do I smell another Ati convert?

Good deal on those ram sinks!;)

I slapped an Arctic Cooler on mine a while back and that got me just enough more on my card to keep me from slappin down the bucks for a new one as well.

Oh yeah, I'm going 6800GS in a few paychecks. (6800GT performance for $200? I'm on that like white on rice!) ATI has been slipping lately. Besides, their lineup needs serious cleanup. Why the hell is a Radeon X800GT slower than a vanilla Radeon X800? And I barely know where to place the X1k series on the charts.
