I was bored..

..and had nothing to do.
So I did this:

I used AA, Thermalright HS and 50 CFM Delta fan

It's not overclocked, because I haven't flashed the BIOS.

Chaos Snake · Mar 31, 2003

LOL thats great. I'm just wondering how many PCI slots do you lose with that setup.

dumpa · Mar 31, 2003

Well I need only one

(I had to move my NIC from third one to the last PCI slot).

funnyperson1 · Mar 31, 2003

haha that is awesome, i give you props for that...now flash that bios now so we can see the fruits of your labor ...woulda been nice to have a before/after comparison though

dumpa · Mar 31, 2003

I will but need to figure out how to make Win 98 read Nero written CD with new BIOS.

I don't have a floppy and have only Win 98 CD.

Well I have it somewhere but I'm too lazy to install it

Will post results after flash..

I was thinkin of gettin some

dumpa · Mar 31, 2003

No, not really

But hopefuly the HSF will

tainice · Mar 31, 2003

off topic, how do you guys attach images?

REDDRUMZ · Mar 31, 2003

I don't know what material your couch is made of, but you probably shouldn't set it there.

dumpa · Mar 31, 2003

I have to upload my images to my ISP provided web page and than link it to my post.

I got headache now, need to get a smaller fan

cf79 · Mar 31, 2003

Why?

The static or what ?

Anyway it was there for about a minute, during the 'photo session' only

It is REALLY heavy!

I had to use a 'poop' load of AA. If it breaks it will damage my NIC and the card itself.

But that's it.

I have a backup Ti4200 card

I can just see you going to bed and in the middle of the night CRASH!

hopefully not though! nice work!

dumpa · Mar 31, 2003

Thanks!

I think it will be fine, because I tested it and it's really tough.

I like AA.
I removed the epoxy and than cleaned everything with some nail polish remover.

Than I apllied a LOT of AA on the core and the shim.

Actually it was pretty easy

And I had no experience with ATI cards and heatsinks...

Is that Thermalright SK6 or something, can't remeber the name..

It weighs 382 grams (HS only).

Ec]-[oMaN · Mar 31, 2003

hehe nice mod but it only takes a mili second to zap those ram chips ^^

ROFL!!!

wont that cripple the heat transfer??? anyway, good luck, post the results

dumpa · Mar 31, 2003

The core had a 'normal' amount of AA on it. But around it and on the shim it was a big mess

.

My comp is silent now (using Antec' fan regulation)

Flashfx2 · Apr 1, 2003

That is the coolest thing I've ever seen. I've always wondered if anybody has ever tried to attach a cpu heatsink to a video card. I hope you can get around to flashin the bios, it would be cool to see the results.

Lazlo Panaflex · Apr 1, 2003

That is pretty kick ***, interested in the results....

I was bored..
