I got a small problem.

Bought an 8800GT the other day and it came with a stonking heatsink which I have modded to take 2X80mm fans as the stock fan was carp.

The problem I have is finding those nut things with the springs on to screw the heatsink onto the GFX.

You know, the ones so that you dont tighten to the point of buggering the whole thing up.

Does anyone actually know the 'proper' description for these and where to get some of them from?

OR is there anything else I could use?

Ta :)
