I recently attempted overclocking my Diamond Stealth II to 50 MHz, but
I noticed that it gets dangerously hot.  I have an old 486 heatsink &
fan that I'd like to try attaching to the V2100 chip on the Stealth.
What's the best way to do this?  I've seen people use everything from
Super Glue gel to fish line to rubber bands.  What's a *sane*
alternative to this?  Also, if I *do* use proper cooling, what's the
highest (average) I can O/C the Stealth without killing it?  TIA.

Best,
Joe
