I find it funny when sombody busy a 200 dollar processor, and then spends 100 bux on crazy cooling shit, to reach the proformance of a 300 dollar processor.
but i guess thats top of the line...still kindea pointless but nevertheless good work

it doesn't void warranty if you take it off
no way for eVGA to know the voltage was physically changed.
BIOS volt-mods are actually way more dangerous in terms of warranty.
I plan to use this 8800GT at 840/1975/2000 until I step-up at the end of my 90 Day period. 12/27/2007 7:34:57 PM |

From looking at the pictures I can't see what you altered. But I like that cooling system. 12/27/2007 9:56:42 PM |

do you see that blue box and two black wires coming out of it?
I soldered those two points from the potentiometer on to the two points marked on the above picture. Then by adjusting the potentiometer you are able to vary the ohms changing the stock voltage from 1.15V to whatever your volt meter reads

I'd attach a blower instead of a regular fan on that gpu cooler. It's not sucking in a whole lot of air with that audio card blocking it. Same goes with the intake for the PSU. 12/31/2007 11:50:05 AM |
