I've noticed the back of the card (above where the GPU is situated) gets really
hot. I remember reading that the heatsink on the 9500Pro's has a relatively
large gap between the core and the heatsink due to the shim. Is there anyway
around this? Could I just use Artic Alumina expoxy, remove the shim and
directly attach a better heatsink directly to the core? I'm worried about
cracking the core.
