    MSI N460GTX Cyclone vmods

    So, as some of you may know, I've been all over the MSI N460GTX Cyclone last weekend up until now, but I've at least managed a few things to help you others out as well. Namely a bunch of mods, which are as follows:





    Should be a bit useful if you're pushing it to the limit. I managed a bit more than 26k in Vantage with that setup.

    Not sure if I needed to hear the detail about you thinking about the Cyclone in the shower...

    It's quite simple to remove the resistors if nothing else, all you need is a soldering iron, that'll raise the voltage quite a bit. (+0.13V)

    The VGPU measure points are the three big capacitors (plus side) located at the back side, near the GPU.

    MeanMachine you post the coolest volt mods ever!
    Signatures make my posts look huge... but I'm not humble enough to completely remove my signature, so I kept this note explaining it.

    Not a problem. Maybe should've posted that in the original post for clarity. I'll try and post a pic of VGPU and VMEM measure points tomorrow.

    I was searching this mod and found it was under my nose the whole time on my home team. I scored the 768mb version open box newegg for 130 bux to practice on. I just bought a tek9 slim pot and a gemini and never used ln2 on vga before this so i figured this would be a good start and if something went wrong its 130 bux. thanks for the mod and I'll post my results and pics. I did my research and this card looks like a wolf in sheeps clothing. happy thanksgiving
