I'm reading up on flashing my 9550 to a 9600. it seems easy enough but im concerned about the cooling. Its an ATI 9550 256mb. It came with a decent Heat sync, (6x4 cm) and it currently is OC to 375/220 when gaming (had it to 420/220 at a time but decided to switch ati programs 'cuz of functions, and heat was being noticed). should i concider not flashing until i get more cooling, fan etc, or is it not a problem seeing as it basically is a 9600 already. Also. I have both Ati tool and Tray tools and was wondering if Ati tool is nessesary for useing the flashed card once its flashed. Thanks.
