Wont work. Every video card I had has an exposed core and if you try lapping that you are actually grinding away bits of the gpu. I don't know if they started making the 8xxxs and the x2xxxs with heatspreaders, but the cards Ive seen dont have them.

lol, so you spotted the other thread huh? lol. I did so because there are some people who only visit water cooling, and some people who only visit the gpu section and wanted people's input.
And yes, please post pic, i'm on a xxx xfx 8800gtx
Last time I lapped a GPU was the GeForce 4 series. I wouldn't recommend it nowadays with the bare chip packaging unless they start putting AMD64/Intel style IHS' on the cores. Even when they do, popping an IHS off may be a better alternative.
