Remove the film from the Thermal Tapes on the bottom of the
RAM Heatsinks and attach the Heatsinks on the VGA RAM. 
Note 1) If Thermal  Grease  or  other  residue  remains  on  the

RAM, then the Thermal Tapes will not stick. Clean the
surface  of  the  RAM  with  acetone  or  alcohol  before
attaching the RAM Heatsinks. 

Note 2) The  bonding  strength  of  the  Thermal  Tapes  reaches

90% after 24 hours of curing. Do not exert excessive
force on the RAM Heatsinks during this period. 

Note 3) Thermal  Tapes  are  not  reusable  because  they  lose

adhesiveness  after  their  initial  application.  Purchase
new Thermal Tapes if  the RAM Heatsinks need to be
reattached. 

Clean  the  contact  surface  of  the  VGA  Chipset  completely.
Apply  Thermal  Grease  on  the  VGA  Chipset  that  makes
