This is amazing. The same thing happened to a 560Ti I have laying around... I think I'm going to rig up something like that too!

Ghetto full speed fan mod on laptop. The fan runs way too slow for my liking so I tap a direct 5V from USB to the fan and it runs at full tilt biggrin.gif






Ghetto soundcard mods. I don't use 3.5mm jack and needs RCA jack but I hate adapters, solution? Solder the RCA jack to adjacent slot and walla tongue.gif You can see ghetto EMI shield by the use of anti static bag covering the PCI slots tongue.gif

You win the thread. I now have a use for all of those North bridge heatsinks I've been saving for "just in case"
