Do you pencil in on the back of the board? Never did a graphite mod before.
No you pencil it on the front, on the transponder itself. Slightly so a layer
of graphit is on it. If you have a great/big/large airflow, then cover it with
tape. Cause it will blow off.

I did, check this link for a manual http://www.clunk.org.uk/forums/revie...ng-review.html

Before this video card I had a 8600GTS Silent, I removed that big heatsink.
And replaced it with a Zalman VF1000. You need to be very carefull and
it is at own risk. Because it's a kind of thermal superglue, I really had to force
it off. For a sec there I thought I was gonna break that video-card.

So same with the motherboard, it will take some force. But be carefull and
don't lose patience
