Default Time to mod my Gigabyte Radeon 9800 PRO?

Hello everybody,
I guess if I should apply some Artic Silver Ceramique between the stock HSF
and the chip, plus adding some coolers to those memory chips.
The old Maya II Radeon 9700 PRO featured a bigger HSF combo that was capable
of cooling the memory modules as well.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards.

I`ve got a MayaII Radeon 9700 Pro, had trouble with the fan seizing and
would crash when any 3D work was done.
Although it has a large HSF its aluminium.
I`ve changed it to a Vantec Iceberq4 which is copper and also comes with
copper memory coolers and thermal tape. Its a lot better than the stock one.

I aslo have used Ceramique on my Radeon and CPU which gives a 3 degree drop
under full load compared to other thermal paste.
Here`s the URL http://www.vantec.com.tw/ccba4c.html
