If you can spare the second slot, I highly recommend the DuOrb. My card doesn't get above 46 Degrees at full load.

Most aftermarket (if not all) heat sinks come with ram sinks. And yes, they are necessary. Ram gets very hot (even try touching your system ram).

Duorb's got my vote. Doing a great job for me: 38C idle, nothing higher than 45C at load.
