I got this PNY ti4600 just dying for a silicon BBQ and a spare barton 2500 stock hsf laying around. Would that thing fit right without touching the wrong stuff? Thanks...

Epoxy would do the job.

Would it be ok to use those 4 holes for the mount of the HSF? Is the gauge 2mm?

I'm not sure what size are those, but if you're actually gonna take the time drilling holes on the heatsink, then enjoy. I'm just saying the size of the GPU cover on the TI is big enough to allow you to epoxy a 300-350grams heatsink.

Ill keep that in mind if the instalation becomes too big of a pain in the a$$. Just anything is better then that stock HSF. Now I gotta figure out how to remove the stock HSF without breaking those plastic pins. Know of any tutorials?

Ok I installed the AMD HSF on this ti 4600 and works great. Can get up to 330 on the core before it crashes games. The HSF remains dead cold at 330 too which means it is no where near overheating but needs more juice. Could voltmod this thing or find a modded bios but cannot locate any..

volt mod... that sounds sooo good...

anyways, yeah every single video card runs cold except my freaggin FX5900. The heatsink gets burning hot even though it's meant to handle up to P4 at 3.4Ghz

If it make you fell good, my 9800pro-XT runs kinda hot. Little bastard has been since it was a pro.

Well 2 reasons. One it was too risky since the r350 core is exposed and didnt want to take the chance of crushing it since the mounting method does not have a point to stop. The VGA Silencer was a better solution. Wouldnt have matter since the r350 GPU would burn that one up too.

Second and most important reason is I wanted something that would export the heat from that GPU out of the case. AMD hsf obviously could not do that.

I just wanted to ditch that POS HSF off the ti4600 for it was mounted on a slope and the metal sucks. Not to mention that the compound they used was worthless. No wonder it had stability issues when OCing. All I had was stock AMD HSF on hand so I drilled one up and mounted it on those four holes around the core. Just need to fugure how to voltmod this card now but all I find is ti4200 pcb mods.
