Was the cooler difficult to install? I'd seen people complaining that the thermal tape was awful for the extra heatsinks.

You have to be absolutely sure that BOTH surfaces you are applying the tape to are completely clean

The real PITA was figuring out the clearance of the vram coolers and the main unit block touching the die

Cheers! I'd looked at it in the past, and seen people having issues. I guess I just take for granted that the surface should be clean, and expect others to know as well. Should know better. LOL

I highly recommend it IF you have the space in your case. My card is currently taking up 4 slots right now, 5 if you leave a slot open for airflow
