This cooler is a great deal for $25. Comes with 8 RAM sinks, 8 MOSFET sinks, thermal glue packets and stuff I didn't bother using at the moment on this card.

That stock cooler looks like mine, but might be a touch bigger. This is what my GT530 looks like:



When Folding it reaches 62-71C @ ~65% fan speed. I just want it a touch cooler. Don't suppose you could spare one of those VRM sinks for me to add to this card ?
