    Thermalright SLK-900A is also a very solid copper heatsink for Socket-A if you can find one. Great thing is it's a clip-on heatsink.
    The little air system that could.

    you DONT want a clip on heatsink for something this heavy...backplate is troublesome, but highly recommended...

    your video card will thank you for it.

    Thermalright sp-97 is the best bolt on socket A heatsink, good luck finding a used one though
