I am wondering if the 2.4c heatsink is the same as the 3.0c heatink. i have the 2.4c one, is the 3.0c one also fully aluminum? the reason i ask is becasue the 2.4 is rated to produce 66w of heat, while the 3.0c almost 90w. i want to cool my 9600pro with a 80w pelt at 12v on the 2.4c heatsink. i'm not sure if it will handle it though.

not even actually...... so then i will have about 100 w of heat for the heatsink to get rid off.... maybe it will work if i mod the stock heatsink with a copper base...

i already have a stock heatsink... but maybe an AMD one would be better... then it would be all copper
