Wow man, I have toasted much hardware in my time, but I've never done anything like that!

That would be interesting. I wonder how loud ATI would laugh...the funny thing is that they might actually do it (you could claim the GPU caught fire).I dare you to try and RMA it.![]()

If you're going to rma it as a joke, see if you can also heat the pcb itsself up with a heatgun and warp it. So it makes a rather odd shape. Oh, and take off the ram chips first
AHHAHA, you could tape the stock heatsink on with scotch tape, like you just rap it around the card a couple times, over the agp pins and everything.

Nice ramsinks... but what's the black area on the card?
And did it survive?
Aaaah wait a minute, now I see
No but seriously that sucks a lot, makes you think twice before trying a TEC eh?
lol... This forum requires that you wait 70 seconds between posts. Please try again in 8 seconds.

Friend: Do you have a spare PSU lying around?
Me: No why?
Friend: My PSU just blew up, I think the second 8800GTX might have been too much for it to handle
Me: what PSU was that again?
Friend: Antec 480w
Me:........
