I have this card with the gigabyte heatsink it came with:

However I have another one that looks like this:

Question is, which one is better for cooling? Should I try both to see which gives better temps? I mean the extra one I have is bigger and has a bigger fan.



EDIT: Sorry the links are screwed and I can't be stuffed fixing them. So will a bigger heatsink with a bigger fan work better than a smaller heatsink with a smaller fan.

It's probably better to just leave the current heatsink on, because it was built for this card and the other one is not intended to go on top of that card. compatibility will be bad and temperatures could also be lower due to the cooling paste being on the current heatsink. if you apply the other one, there will be less paste left.

I wouldn't recommend changing heatsink ;)

Ahh yes I have tried it out fits nicely and getting 55 max temp under load compare to 62 as before sweet.
