    Yeah my original 6860 kicked my butt... oh well though. I haven another and its rocking just as well as my first one did.

    I'm even upgrading this one nicely so i can keep it a good long while. So no more disassembly for me (though i would still love to get at the freaking GPU) but my disassembly days are behind me.

    for shame we like pictures around here :(
    :p

    Thanks, wonderful thread.

    Kamin_Majere was hilarious!

    N00d13s is to be congratulated, and to think he did it all on his mattress.

    Well i do try, but i have learned my lesson...leave disassembly to people 12+ years younger than you.
