Well I know the SLK line of heatsinks come fairly well polished from factory... Best HS's out IMO...
If the board has holes at the corners of the North Bridge chip then you need to find a hetsink with the extesion tabs and spring loaded posts to attach it...Otherwise you would need to find a good thermal conductive adhesive like...

You can spend 5 minutes lapping the worst pre-lapped and have a better solution than the best pre-lapped one.

It really doesn't take that much time. 30 minutes will give you a great HSF.
