Where to buy cooling junk...

[Willamette_sucks]

ne1 know of some good places with good prices to buy some cooling stuff?
the products im looking for specifically are:
Thermaltake Crystal orb
tweakmonster ramsinks (eight of em) (standard, rev. 4)
arctic silver thermal adhesive
Thermaltake cpu duct mod

I would like to buy all these things from one place, to save on shipping, and also so i get them all at the same time. However if its at least 5 bux cheaper to get things at seperate places (after shipping), I will do so.

TY.

Long live ATI.

A lot of people tend to use readily available materials whenever possible, to build their own cooling components. A friend and I glued pennies to the ram of a geforce2- we got great overclocks out of it, however whether or not this was due to the AMAZING cooling of the pennies is not known. Anyway, have fun!

Pennies are coated with a pretty thick layer of zinc and the purity of the copper is questionable to say the least. Go with tweak monster or you could try to find something at your local hardware store. OCsystem.com is where I go for cooling of my graphics cards, they usually have very low prices and they have GREAT costomer support and products.

Or just search for an old Pentium heatsink and a saw and cut it into little pieces... should do the trick.

I've done that before too though it isn't as elegant as premade ones and there are very few (if any) copper pentium heatsinks.

You want copper RAMsinks? Wow... what an overkill.

hey a few more mhz is a few more 3dmarks!

Well I don't think 1 or 2 MHz is worth the extra price. In most cases you may be happy if you even get a couple of extre MHz when using RAMsinks compared to no RAMsinks.

Now with ddr its a differant story...

Not really... my DDR modules don't run very hot with a 120 Mhz OC and only aluminium RAMsinks.

with ramsinks on my gf3 I got an extra 20mhz.

That is a pretty big increase!.

With my GeForce2MX I was running 205MHz memory with RAMsinks... but after some weeks to RAMsinks dropped off without me noticing it, but it still worked at 205MHz.

But with my current Ti4200 I also use RAMsinks because I plan to increase the voltage a little.
