I have a question I hope you can answer.

I have a Gainward GeForceFX 5900 Ultra 256mb Golden Sample card. It takes up 2 slots on the mobo, 1 agp, 1 pci even though it doesn't conect to the pci.

My questions - How the hell do you remove the heatsinks and fan combo pice, and is it easy to do? Sorry for the question, but I don't have an extra 500 bucks to shell out for this card again.

I am also curious to know if I could use just regular ramsinks combined with a Maze4 GPU block on the gpu and get good overclocking abilities that way.

Any help, instruction would VERY MUCH appreciated.
