Heatsinks are not directly connected to the CPU in anyway, Paul Siu. They are mounted on top of the CPU with a thermal compound, if that is what you're talking about. A heatsink is only used to draw up the heat from the CPU, then the...

yes, you can upgrade the memory to DDR400, and it will take it as dual channel if the memory permits. Also, you can upgrade to the 100GB 7200RPM drive, but I am not sure if it will jump to ATA-6. The Memory to BUS ratio will become 1:1...
