The fix is to lower the reistance to 25.5k of R520, apparently.

Seems strange that Nvidia can pull all these cards in, desolder these resisters and then solder new ones in. Repack them, ship them out to etailers by Weds morning. Just one card would take a skilled person like a half hour, no? Multiply that by thousands of cards and I see weeks. What do they do give the card to a robot, lol.
I think it's the engineers at the resellers that are doing it (EVGA, BFG, XFX, etc.).Quote:

ooopss... I can see hundreds of workers in Chinese factories working OT, opening 8800GTX boxes and wicking, desoldering and resoldering all night...
...getting lashed repeatedly with a leather whip to meet the deadline, only to find out that their paycheck is 5 cents and a bowl of soup.Quote:

here's some pictures. Before the value of the resistor is 50K, and the goal is changing the 50K resistor to 25.5K.

I just looked @ one of my cards and it says 39C.......WTF??? I have 2 more to look at, but my eyes hurt just from trying to look @ this one.
That's fine. Mine says E22, measure 21K5. There are a few 68C popping up, BFG and Sparkle I've seen so far.Quote:
