Picture 3= the finished product, sitting beside the stock ATI sink, and the black ex-pentium sink, now hacked apart to become ramsinks

picture 4= Yay it sits flat on the die! wheeeee

Picture 5 = 3 PCI slots RIP...

Picture Below = Our Filed and dremelled out heatsink....

We should have used the dremel instead of first filing the heatsink.
And one correction, that was an ex K6-2 heatsink off the retired Compaq.

Anyway, it was a fun day.

Nice ghetto job there, guys! :thumbsup:

Might be a good idea to change the thread title; if Geeky's head swells any more it will pop. :eek: :p ;D

Sweet. :)

Oh, and P.S. I do not have an over-inflated ego. It may be quite large, but it's entirely justified. :p ;D

I hope that isn't the National Post in the background :)

Stupid Conrad "Media Conglomerate" Black...

Nice job on the mod & overclocks! :)

Nope, that's not the National Post. It's a local paper, The Vancouver Courier, that comes with the Sunday and Wednesday flyers.

Oh Des, you left your hacksaw at my place. Bring back my screwdriver when you come for your hacksaw.
