    Does anyone have any pics of their heatsink/cpu/gpu or can direct me to some?

    Just ordered a T9600 so just want to read up and see what people have done so that I'm ready to put it in when I get it.

    Also I read that you can take off the CPU heatpipe without removing the GPU heatpipe as well. Any info on that? What about the warranty sticker? I read that it's on one of the screws of the CPU or something and that you can remove it just enough carefully so that it doesn't void the warranty. But then someone said how Asus told them removing it won't void the warranty..

    I haven't opened my G51 yet so maybe it's straightforward? Dunno but just thought it'd be good to see some pics or hear what others have done.
    Thanks
