HIS 6870 - Where to attach heatsinks?

Thread Starter 
I'm putting in my WC setup this weekend and my GPU will have a waterblock on it. To keep everything else cool I have ordered small heatsinks to put on the memory and voltage regulators. Only problem is the guide that came with them (For a 6870) shows a different layout.

Here is how I'm going to lay it out, this should be OK?450

Usually on your ram (as you indicated) and your voltage regs. Im not familiar with Ati cards to say where they may be though.

Im sure someone will jump in soon and locate them for you smile.gif

Well the power ICs are the chips that you marked near the ferrite chokes (The ones that say R22), so I'd say it looks good.
