    Hi, does anyone know the correct size for the copper shim for the d630?
    My gpu is always at min 72c at idle and 90+ under load.
    Thanks

    Hi people with the 135M,

    I know your GPU does have the faulty nvidia core (G86?), but does it die as much as the 8400m?

    Also how is the gaming on it?

    Did you ever do the Copper Mod??? If so, what size shim was used and what kind of improvement did you see?

    Thanks.
