Skinnee Labs - GTX480 Block Round-Up (working thread)

[luke997]

again
i warn u
that 3 screws on the backplate to waterblock
if u dont tighten it enough
ure risk frying ure mem's
if the backplate was not connected to the waterblock.. ure theory is sound.
have fun
advice to run without the backplate

With the thin washers there's no problem with 3 middle screws, you can tighten them just fine and the plate is flat so no bending = no problems and good contact.

I have 3 cards done this way and RAM running 2000, no problems.
Obviously though everyone does it on his own risk
