Default How to cool the 4770...?

Im looking into aftermarket cooling for the 4770. I need to find the best RAM sinks for them, and maybe use Arctic Silver Cerimaque to hold it on? I'm very new to GPU cooling, so I'm not sure how to hold RAM sinks on.

I want to cool the RAM sinks EXTREMELY well so I don't mess anything up.

Also looking for a sleek looking single or dual slot heatsink/fan for the core. I know that anything that works with the 9600gt will work for the 4770, but I want to find something that looks sleek as well, cools fine, and possibly dumps heat outside the case

Those fine for RAM sinks?

Actually I kind of wanted to take the stock heatsink of a 4870 or something, would that work?

wow erm, keep the stock cooler on and put a 120/92mm fan behind it blowing air to back of case? LOL dont think there is any "stock" looking aftermarket coolers that blow air to the back of the case.

The best stock type cooler I can think of would be a Vantec Iceberg.
It elevates the Cooler above the card to allow for RAM sinks.

Aside from that I would use the Scythe that Foxy linked with a set of these.

Isn't that Vantec just an exhaust for an empty PCI slot...? Nvm. Looked at it wrong. That just screams cheesy...lol
Okay away from the stock look

Those ram sinks look pretty good though..

No it's a cooler. Look at the pics a little closer. I don't think it's that great of a cooler to be honest although I've never used one.
