Cooling a 9700 Pro

I've been interested in cooling my 9700 to get some more speed out of it, i currently run it at ~350mhz core. Here are a few products i've looked at and was wondering if anyone had an opinion on them, or know of a better solution. thanx

RAM Coolers:
Nickel Plated Coper RAM Sinks for Video Cards

-I dont know if the "3m Thermal Adhesive tape inclued on the back of the ramsink" are a good thing or bad thing for heat transfer, seams easyer to install but will i give up anything?


GPU heat sink:
Zalman Z80oC-HP Active VGA Heatpipe Cooler
http://store.yahoo.com/ocsystem/zalzm80ahvga.html

I've seen this recomended before and it looks nice, i'd probably get the fan with it too. Do you think i should stay with the stock thermal grease or get something different.

Thanx for the imput.

-Eric

I have got stuff directly from 3m before (for testing). Great co. If they made the thermal tape I can personally say its top notch stuff. Id use it. Im sure its both strong and very thermally conductive. They take the tape/film buisness very seriously. When it comes to thermal tape Im sure the same high spec rules apply.
