Does give good temps though. Idles in the 30s, loads in the 50s.

I ll stick to my musashi!Will be enough for my 5850 and i ll find a way around the digital mosfet cooling thingie!:cool:

Cypress has 53 mm mount-holes. Go ahead and use this. The problem however, is its tiny VRM chips. Single-piece MOSFET heatsinks are sometimes too heavy and yet inefficient for them. The VRM chips on graphics cards with digital-PWM are in theory hotter than a single-FETs because each chip packs both up and down FETs, and the driver IC into a single package.

Something that comes in my mind is that u can buy some themal pad and put some smaller heatsinks altogether on one,contact pad and then put them to the VRMS.My point is that the themral pad sticks MILLIONS times better that the pre applied glue to the mosfets and so u can attach bigger heavier or multiple sinks in the VRMS and thus keep them cooler.
