Asus EN8800GT(512mb) with new Glaciator cooling!

[barzi]

The Asus 8800GT 512mb has got a new cooler. The Glaciator cooler:



You can read some thing about the cooler here:

They say 7C cooler, and less sound, so that sounds good!

My two questions are:

Is it safe that the memory is not cooled? (also in mind that I read something about chips that gives artificats on a certain speed, maybe this has to do something with the temp?)
And how about the electric kind of things(on the right side, the side of the pci-e power connector)? You see one copper block, but is that enough, because I think with the reference cooler, they cool the whole right side.., right?)

In the Netherlands, this is the cheapest 8800GT 512mb(200EUR).
