I dont know if it works or not. I have a new conductive ink pen for sale in a thread in the for sale section if you are interested. You can PM if you are interested.

When done properly pencil overvolting works just fine.

For an 8600gts you can only increase the memory voltage with a pencil. To increase core voltage you need conductive ink. Don't try the pencil mod without a multimeter though if you don't have one..

I'd recommend this guide it's very detailed and explained well. I'm sure that the VGPU measure may not apply within the same spot. But some research. I'm planning a pencil mod on aftermarket cooling soon.

Heres some other guide you may find useful:

It works well just make sure you put tape over after otherwise it can get blown off
