I think his is glued on. Mine posted above your post is glued and has cable ties holding it on voltmodded to 1.5v it ran ~50c running ATI tool (the fury cube)

EDIT:the heatsink wasn't all that heavy you can see it doesn't even make the board bend

i always would fear, to damage the card during such an operation.

how old do you were, when you performed this?

EDIT: impressive work... i bet it gave you hell of an OC

i was 14 about to turn 15 It idled at 30c loaded at 46c overclocked it to 700mhz core 1000mhz mem. That is a 7900GS with 1.5v on core and 2.27v on mem

quite a nice card, suitable for even modern games.... its bandwith is monstrous,compared to its shading power, its like a 9500gt on steroids

EDIT: sorry CP, but i will never get me a hd4850 again... theyre... just MUCH too hot. at least in a case. the vf900 boiled.

Just installed my corsair nautlius 500.

 

[sneekypeet]

Nice and clean!

Something strangely familiar about that case though

 

[Chicken Patty]

hmmm, looks like the 4850's have slightly more balls than the GX2.

GX2

4850's C/F

 

[p_o_s_pc]

nice bro... makes me feel alittle better about running dual 8800GT's as they are about equal to a GX2. How you liking the 4850s

I am about to game a bit with them and see how that goes. I'll post back and let you guys know how they perform. Funny I had dual 4870's before

 

[TheMailMan78]

I miss those 4850s already. I has a sad. Anyway why are you surprised CP? Those were MY 4850s.

GX2 seemed so powerful, but YOUR 4850's are moar powerful

It was an aluminum heatsink with a copper core so it wasnt that heavy. I used a small amount of super glue on each corner mixed with cure AS5 it didnt budge.

I was 15 when i did this and it was on a 6800nu. Back when they where still the shit.

I didnt do such a hefty volt mod on mine since i was just starting that kinda stuff.

My 4850 with a vf900 dosent get hot at all in my Antec 1200.

I had dual 4870s as well and swore never to go back to ATI. After that i got a 280, then 2 more. Traded 2 for phase and just sold the last one leaving me with a 4850 i fixed. Im waiting to get a 5870. Go figure how that worked out

One MOAR 5850 is the cure.

Well I need a better cooler for my CPU first. Then Ill be saving up for another 5850

 

[pantherx12]

my rig isnt too cool. its top is totally scratched, thru the metal box. buddys spilled liquids against its front several time. the front led ist long dead, but i can rewire it if i like to.
i can see nearly no interior if my case, due to the damn mesh, i wanted, because it can breathe better. sadly, its nearly as loud, as no case

i might need a professional paintjob. anodizing or powdercoating would also be cool... but expensive:shadedshu

EDIT: i also got a new sli to show... may ready the camera the days... doenst look to special. just like its ever been there ;-)

Clean the case and dry it and use car spay paint, hold it from 5 inches away and go nuts, worked great for me

 

[d3fct]

haha now thats a mod!!!!!!! yep used to do shit like that all the time.
