woo! computer work!
ok, so this is fun for me. My fan was dead on my video card so i changed it and added heat sinks to the memory.
here's what the exposed GPU looks like on an NVidia fx5600 256mb card
top with new heatsinks and fan
bottom with new heatsinks
in the compuuuuta!
and i scavenged an old case fan from a REALLY old computer and slid it infront of my HDD as shown here. (its slid more in but i left it out for demonstration purposes)
So yes! now I can play Battlefield2 and over clock more without hitting 220F on my card :-)
UBER NERD POWER!
