copper ram shields/heat transfer pads/pennies :)

well since my bent penny idea was no big succes, I decided to use lapped pennies as cold plates for ram on my video card :D
i came up with this idea becuase i was tired of removing the super glue from my video card every time i changed the heatsinks!
Also lapped pennies would prove to be much more eficiant to place in between the heatsink and chip, than just going bare. With the hard surface of the penny it is very easy to remove the superglue. I just have to use a razor now!!:p I'm very happy about this!!!!:p :p :p

I'd be careful about coming south over the border from now on. The Secret Service will definitely be on the lookout for you. We Americans have no sense of humor about scofflaws. You see what we did to that Ruskie programmer, didn't you?

We have copper pennies in the UK as well, but I don't care if you deface them, just as long as they are not my pennies :)
