It all started while someone was cleaning out the dust bunnies. He decided to make use of an old heatsink.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03603.png
A graphics card was getting ready to go back to school. Week 1 of Spring quarter.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03604.png
While walking to school, he met three nasty screwdriver bullies. They popped off the graphic card's heatsink.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03605.png
He was unwilling to let go of his heatsink.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03606.png
So the big screwdriver gave the graphic card a good beating.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03607.png
He had to get to school on time. Just in case of another bunch of bullies ahead, he went to get his silver armor.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03608.png
And borrowed his big brother's heatsink.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03609.png
This time, he secured his big brother's heatsink with badass black threads.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03610.png
And armed with a threatening-looking fan.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03611.png
The graphics card was once again ready to continue his journey to school.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03612.png
Other PCI cards students were scared of him so they changed seats.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03613.png
Instead of being intimidated by the graphics card, the USB thingys were attracted to his big fan.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03614.png
So, the USB thingys were all over his fan for it vibrates when it becomes turned on.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03615.png
The graphics card thinks to himself, "This is the best lecture ever."
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...k/DSC03616.png
And the fan on the CPU heatsink died of jealousy.
The End
Have a wonderful quarter/semester back at school. :p
LMAO some of these mods are pure genius..the various coolin mods are my favorites of the bunch
here is my mod... slapped on a alphacool naxxxos XP waterblock on to my 260gtx + an old heatsink from a geforce 2 :D
http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t...s/DSCN1344.jpg
desided to put a 80mm fan on the heatsink to keep things nice and cool.
http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t...s/DSCN1345.jpg
heres what it did to my clock speeds :D:D:D pretty good i would say the temps are around 30c constantly. the card has no volt mods :D
http://www.hwbot.org/signature.img?i...18&thumb=false
I want to hear luie tell another story YAY!:woot::wiggle:
Heh i like that waterblock GPU mod, Im doing the same to my HD2900Pro + I am putting 3 AMD 754 BOX coolers on the RAMs :D
How about modding 7600GS and adding some parts [MOSFET and a lot of capacitors, from really small to really BIG]?
MOSFET is from dead Gf6600, because comparing 7600GS and 7600GT, both by Palit, there was clearly one MOSFET missing ;).
The rest is mostly for fun, no spectacular results unfortunately, but I'm still working on it ;).

lol you need to improve your soldering skill tho :p
That soldering was done by a friend of mine, I'm still learning [slowly...]. It is not that bad - at least it works ;). And that was the main idea, not to do it perfect in every aspect :p:.
And now "the leg of the capacitor" [for voltage measuring] is not only on the PCB :).
In fact it is much more "clear" than that :rofl::

worked flawlessly :) [Commando; 100k VR + 8.2k resistor]
Nah if it was neat it wouldnt be so ghetto lol.Quote:

The famous 9800Pro-Keychain-mod :D
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/mPXzl7hcce...Xgk3/thumb.jpg
Installation of a VF1000 with a decent VRM-cooler attached (Stock heatsink)
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/1JhNVuZ04a...2XcB/thumb.jpg
Often stock-coolers really do come handy...
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/f6BZW3Lb9P...Avpd/thumb.jpg
Really mitched a notch there.. but it fitted and worked. As paste i used the stuff thats wrapped between the memory and the stock-cooler.. Really works well. Tightend it together with the screws and it works like a charm :up:
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/brxYlLKTn2...fFcj/thumb.jpg
Final result :D
This was more of an experiment ... :
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/oDNjEmGBhY...fkdE/thumb.jpg
Yes, attaching CCFL's towards my TFT. Used an old 12V DC powersupply of a cablemodem which delivered up to 1A. This was the result:
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/cmRlk30DKt...4efl/thumb.jpg
Pretty nice back then...
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/Z8m8XaS6zw...CwBG/thumb.jpg
My first watercooling.... :D Wraps of garbagebags.. rofl
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/bn4Z6kdBsx...B3T2/thumb.jpg
Soldering new caps on a fried 2600Pro...
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/wzFeHitanb...DNq8/thumb.jpg
Untill i figured out this was'nt the correct side of the card, my heatsink woud'nt fit no more :eek::D
Later on, a boostermod, since the PCI-express slot cannot deliver more then 75watts:
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/GUa0tqqw9P...aGoT/thumb.jpg
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/URhDoVxlV9...vAGu/thumb.jpg
Alot of people might wonder why the hell an Athlon 64 IHS was doing on a vidcard.. It would protect the core from being chrushed by my vapochill. Really cool temps, -29 at load / 1200MHz core. This was a 8600GT btw.
http://tweakers.net/ext/f/EtKnzqUxwG...slfe/thumb.jpg
Dangerden Maze 3 waterblock on a X1950Pro with 2 screws :D
This was what I did last night.
http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...12923_5691.jpg
Added a second 300 watt PSU and it works great. !!
ghetto mods when.....when most of your water cooling components came from home depot :up:
LMAO! sirheck, that is freaking awesome.
Wow that brings back memories... It was in the February 2001 issue of the South African PC Format magazine as a joke in the classifieds section... Something along the lines of 750MHz P3 laptop with surround sound speakers :DQuote:
