Ordered my Elsa Gladiac 920 and brought it home, opened the box, and lo and behold, one of the heatsinks is not attached and flying around loose in the packaging. Rather than paying shipping costs back to Maryland and having to wait more time (I have no video card, you see, which makes writing these increasingly annoying college papers very difficult), is there any way I can attach this back on? Quite honestly, it doesn't look like thermal gook at all, it looks like Elmers but I thought I'd ask what I should put on to firmly reattach it. Any ideas, or should I just send it back and fail out of college? ;p
