    Hey EF, I see you went with a different heatsink above the RAM. Is the stock one really that bad?

    Also, I'm guessing you used Arctic Silver Thermal Adhesive on those heatsinks?

    The RAM MOSFET block on my board is not seated properly, so just took it off and stuck some copper ramsinks on it... they don't even get warm...

    Those ramsinks comes with thermal tape that you just peel off the protective film on them and stick it on.
