October 21, 201212 yr Looks like BFG 9800GT OCX to me. Some Gainward models have separate heatsink as well. Â Edited October 21, 201212 yr by I.nfraR.ed
October 21, 201212 yr haha  maybe I beet you Burnt a 8800gt by applying As5 on vrm. Killed a P55a ud5 when soldering.(60watt solder -ouch-). The good 480gtx lightning of Hipro.(was his fault but anyway).Its core got broken from the pot. And killed a 4870 aa month ago.  I think I have more,will add soon.
October 22, 201212 yr i burnt out my 3960x ES, after a while only 3cores were ussefull BEFORE DE REVIEW , kill a DFI p45 mobo by flashing a custommade bios made by me... last time i tried anything of bios editing  broke a GTX 480 ligthning.. from te top of my head so far
October 24, 201212 yr Tried to remove CMOS battery with screw driver but I eventually did a short-circuit to the mobo. A8N-SLI, I miss you.
October 26, 201212 yr Oh, bunny OFF  *closes eyes* Just......bunny off  Damn, you failed really hard there. Have you tried to bench it with the last IC Maybee its now an Monster Card
November 1, 201212 yr Baking a semi dead 7950 GT AGP card. Exploded in the oven and finished it off. Â Edited November 1, 201212 yr by Mr.Scott
January 1, 201312 yr Author Ok, this is a new low for me.  Got a card. Pretest- works fine, some OC  Voltmod it- Blackscreen  Sits in the garage for 3 days while I work on other things  Remove voltmods  Works fine.  Go to re-attach voltmods with different trimmer values.......   I finally notice that NO, I didn't attach the trimmer to the vGDDR controller........   I'd soldered it across the BIOS chip.    Wow.
January 2, 201312 yr rofl. Now THAT is creative. Â If it makes you feel better I tinned some random 10pin chip on a 7300le, guess I noticed in time that it wasn't the brains...

January 3, 201312 yr could have been worse, this could have been a cherry 1100MHz+ G80 card Not like it would matter Â
January 10, 201312 yr Author Voltmodded a card, went to pre-test it and discovered that ALL the trimmers had broken wipers. The chances of that happening are tiny! Thankfully open-circuit, not short-circuit.
March 3, 201312 yr Author Thankfully, this fail isn't mine. Â Â Â I bet someone was disappointed with their OMGWATERCOOLED! GPU temps
March 3, 201312 yr i'm happy my CPU Pot didn't has a plastic cover like this waterblock if it had, my cpu is dead now
March 3, 201312 yr Crew Kenny, where did you get my pictures from ? I want you to reveal the source ! I bet it was assman...
