hi, i just bought a 8800gt and i have at home a vf900, i was wondering it was really necessary to put little heat sinks on those little power conductor things or whatever they are called because on the stock heat sink there is a thermal pad on top of them and they are to the far right of the card near the power adapter. i really want to put on my vf900 but an not sure of those power conductor things need cooling for them. for clarification here is a picture of those things http://img529.imageshack.us/my.php [...] 748hg4.jpg on the stock heat sink there are thermal pads on the very left side of the heat sink and that is where those things are located.

On the card itself they are on the right side, not the left, and do need thermal protection (in my opinion)
