    I cut up coolermaster copper ramsinks for mosfets and misc, but now I realise they are really small with little surface area. Those look alot more useful.

    Those look nice and are cheap, but they have that cruddy thermal tape already applied so you have to get it off and put something decent on if you want the best heat transfer. I gues for mosfets and such it doesn't matter as much though.

    Those big sinks would never fit on most boards because of the caps blocking. They are great for bga ram though.

    What I do with sinks that come with thermal tape that doesnt come off is just leave it on and still use thermal epoxy.

    For my R9700 with the Zalman the Coolermaster copper heatsinks are ideal becaue they fit under the zalman. For the NB I'm using the blue Zalman ( ZM-NB47J) with a Sanyo Denki 60mm fan from the alpha heatsink blowing from the side directly on to it.
    The Fan has good air flow an the best thing it's quiet. Ill make some pic's
