Once upon a time not long ago, the computer had only one heatsink dwelling deep inside its case. Some readers might remember "the good old days" when the most you had to worry about for system cooling was getting a heatsink with a fan that actually worked. Then as systems improved, so did system cooling with it. Before long, case fans were added, and even the motherboard chipset came equipped with a heatsink. As progression would dictate, it wouldn't take but a few moments in time before there was a heatsink on everything that produced heat; including the system and video RAM.
