The number one thing to remember when
overclocking is that it creates heat. If you don't work out a way to get rid of
it, your system will die. It's as simple as that.
The heatsink that comes with the Asus 3800 is
a small unit that does a nice job at stock speed. The first think I did was
removed it. The heatsink is very simple to take out. It's held in place by 2
clips. A little pressure on those clip and it will pop right out.
The main reason for going with the Asus 3800
is all the memory chips are on one side of the card. This makes my task of
cooling them a lot easier. Most 32 meg TNT2 Ultra has memory on both sides of
the card. Once you remove the heatsink, clean the TNT2 chip and all the memory
chips with some rubbing alcohol.
