thanks to Myzhi, i fitted my Maze4 GPU on my BFG 6800 GT.

I made the custom Ramsink from one solid peice of aluminum (no pins). I then sandblasted it as a finish and lapped the bottom.

it looks tilted to me, but it will not hurt temps any. The only thing it could do, is torque the card and put a little stress on the holes. Other than that it looks good. Did you make the sinks yourself, or just mod them to fit?

yea, its crooked, you cant fit a Maze4 GPU on the 6800 mounting holes without making it crooked.

my case is the Coolermaster ATC-210, heres a link to my gallery:

Looks good man, cool how those holes still line up.

What kind of machine did you use to make those ram sinks? I guessing its a cnc mill, thats pretty cool how you did, I have thought about making ramsinks on mine, but I got a piddly radeon 9000

Yours seem to be very crooked. You did not drill a new hole on the gpu block?

Very nice job on that ramsink. Looks very professional. I think I'm going to watercool my 6800gt -- the bfg cooler on it is total crap. How much modding did it take to get that block to fit?

yea, i did drill a new mounting hole. i actually wanted to make it crooked, so it would fit better in my setup.

i used a CNC to cut the ramsink.

to mod the Maze4 GPU to fit on the 6800 GT, all you have to do is drill a new hole next to the mounting holes on the Maze4 GPU (nvidia mountings holes). thats all.

Are there any more detailed instructions anywhere on where to drill the hole? Or are people just getting the card, and measuring it based on the holes on the card. I'd like to use my existing maze4GPU on one of these.
