Just got in a shipment from West Florida electronics of about 40 assorted VRs. Now, just need some good mod diagrams, my trusty soldering iron, and some time

Hey, ya know what they say

"no Pain no Gain"

Don't worry Bro, my first test subject is going to be a BFG 8800 GTS

just in case

What's on the menu for mods?

MaadDaawg · #6 05-20-2010

Well, was gonna practice on the 8800 GTS, but that 285 mod looks pretty tempting. Not touching the 480s until I'm sure I wont' eff em up rofl

like that hot glue idea, let me know if it holds up

You got any dead motherboards or VGA's to practice on? That's what I do for a couple hours to make sure I can do the mod. I know, its a little overkill, but I don't want dead hardware cause I'm a retard.

OMG, the vcore mod is tiny

Luckily my dead 680i had some tiny resistors about the same size by the sata ports and on the backside. It took me quite a while to feel confident enough to do the actual mod.
