i just installed a trad2 on my visontek 4870 recently. the gpu and ram temps are fine but the vrm temps are high during idle and go 100+ during load. i am currently using the vrm sinks that came with the trad but i don't believe they are fitting on the vrms. any suggestions of finding a way to cool the vrms? i was thinking about sticking a fan around somewhere to blow air across the card but i know the stock cooler had thermal pads going right across that area. i don't want to take them off the stock cooler but if i could make some of my own and just put a metal brace ontop of it so i can bolt it down then it should work fine.
Edit: i see that the thermal pads for the ram on my old 3870 cooler come off pretty easy and i might take one of those off and fold it in half and bolt it on. think it would work?
