| lol man that was bad thing to but never mind question is: why did you do it and why dident you take full pic of core and lines??? maybe there is a way to unlock a gts because nvidia dident cut lines inside the core thy cut it out side next to resistors next time when u decide to take cover from another gpu use acid is safer(for core i mean) p.s.this is nice site |

| Inquirer was guessing 480mm2, other sites guessing 496mm. Any chance the new owner can be the first to accurately measure it? |

I hope that people who have tried to strip off the IHS would post some working results here. I am sure we are all interested to find out more!  |

| the card still working ? |
Comment by: Muk on 08-Dec-2006 1:55 am
| Could we try to get an accurate measurement as to the dimensions of the core? So far it has been mostly speculation, and I don't believe the Inq's "information". |

but no blocks available yet. the really hot part is the rams and next to the core one of the regulator. amazing heater. |

| this is considered big meh ? I wouldn mind a core X2 of that size if it performs |

| the core is soooooo huge.... yup that metal border shim would have to be milled down by a mm or so. hmmz who has a diamond polisher to loan? |
Comment by: Gollum on 07-Dec-2006 8:48 am
| tempting. Once u strip u cant mount the side metal border thingy. On the stock heatsink the contact is already minimal. cant do it on the stock heat sink else board will warp as the height of the gpu core will be much lower than the rams. |
