A heatsink/fan combo will give you better temps because of the dual effect.
I use one from 3Racing that I found at a hobby shop last year, it works great. I've tried the Castle ones and they usually fail pretty quickly.
Good to know in case anyone else asks!
Is there a reason you don't want to use that Integy one? I mean the fans are replaceable, it comes in different colors, it works well.
One caveat for the Integy one is that when you get it, it's a little oversized. Take a screw driver and just curl it closed slightly around the screw driver. You don't have to go far at all. The screwdriver is just so you don't bend it and put a crease in it.
You'll get the idea when you see it. It literally took me about 15 seconds to do so don't let it deter you.
