idles @ 42

I'm not a gamer... so i don't overclock my videocard, what i like is that it was relatively cheep to build and totally silent.

man I wish I knew where to get that converter. I remember a thread from gigabyte 2 years ago that said they had the converter but its yet to be found. the plastic fill port cracked as soon as I poured ln2 and I almost killed that board.
it was more of a novelty post than actual tried and true mod. oh well. Im still saving up for one of vinces slims. sorry to get your hopes up. but it the mod was totally meant for comedy/

Had some friends over for a LAN party and needed an extra computer. Luckily had these parts laying around but no case. Easy 10 minute fix... :D

I think that the best place to post this stuff is here

I called this stuff "NVATI", because it is made from an 8800 GTX with GPU VRM controller dead and an HD5870 with dead memory controller. :ROTF:
using stock VRM for VRAM would be too easy, so I had adapted the good old Hipro's DDR maximizer as VRAM VRM.

TBH the card itself is quite crap, but who cares? :rofl:
