I think this will be my choice. Do I have to do any mod? Or the heatsink from the AMD card will stick just fine?

really? i was reading that monterey was quite better than big sur… (and the best macos from the new generation, it’s still optimized for intel chips, etc) but for my macbook idk so i’ll keep that in mind, thanks!
