Just make sure you pop out the HS, lap the base, remove the pad, and use thermal grease. The original one seldom touches the chip itself.
Active cooling is a necessity, ppl using the HS a passive way found out it climbed to about 60-70°C.
A blorb will do. And for silence afficionados, a waterblock.
