As for the tweakmonsters, there are two types: one for the bga memory and one for the regular mem. Looks like you bought the wrong set. They are heavy and along with the gpu cooler, will end up bending your vga card. I put a long threaded bar through the hole in the end of my card and used nuts to hold the card level.

Happy birthday, young one!
Yeah, looks like i've got "RAM Sinks" despite in the description they say they are suitable for BGA ... Ah, well, I'm sure I can find somewhere to put them.

Is it better to "pull" air through the heatercore or "blow" air through the heatercore ? Is there much difference having both ? If can only have one fan which, blow or suck ?

Heres a picture of my heatercore and shroud, is my shroud too small ?

Is the shroud just taped onto the heatercore or something ?
