Active cooling is with a fan indeed. A fan turns 'active'. Passive cooling (nothing really happens) is only an heatsink

I used a 486 cpu fan on the stock 3dfx heatsink and it worked fine.
But why not just overclock it with the overclocker utility? It's much safer

Do yourself a favor and test it with the OC utility first to make sure it functions okay @166MHz before you flash it
