Default 4850/Zalman VF1000 installed

Hello,

Hey are you guys with aftermarket coolers on your 48's using sinks?
If so, what?
I just ordered a VF1000 and was wondering if I should get some sinks.


Thanks

If you're planning on overclocking (like me) I would say don't leave them naked.

I've got the DuOrb and I've got both ramsinks and PWM sinks on mine, GDDR3 can get pretty hot, especially at higher clocks, and if your Vmodding at all, those PWMs are going to need the extra cooling


Plus, its just safer.
