Basically the guy managed to link the power circutry of a dead HD4850 to the working pcb of a Gf6600 LE and not only did it work but it OCed like a beast

I don't understand this exactly? They just finding a way to supply higher amounts of power safer? And why on the old cards and ruin a 4850 thats better? Interesting too look at though.

Nice multi tester, same as mine LOL, I was looking at the cut portion of the card, is he just rerouting the power supply section of the other half?

He's taken the power circuitry of a 4850, soldered it to a 6600LE and used that to power the GPU and RAM of the 6600LE.
