Can you get any heatsink upgrades for the G4, if you can do they make much difference?

Why would you want to change your heatsink?

Also, what is wrong with your Sonnet upgrade? How doesn't it work?

I just wondered if the standard heatsink was good enough.

Here is the problem I'm having with my Sonnet upgrade http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?p=316924#post316924

PowerPC processors have RISC architecture that uses a more conservative amount of internal wiring - thus reducing the amount of heat produced. The heatsinks provided with Macs will be adiquate, unless you have fiddled with overclocking.
