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.
my 2.4c stock cooler is full alu.
and im sure that wud do the trick still on the 80w pelt.
if urs is full copper ...4 sure will do it.

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
