QUOTE(almostthere @ Dec 14 2006, 02:02 AM) long term it's not a good idea as the weight will affect the cards insertion pressure. Same thing happened last time when DIY'ers rigged up old Athlon XP heatsinks and Tt's golden Orb's to their GC. Deterioration of performance. That's why you don't see aftermarket cooler manufacturer's make huge heavy arse HSF for GC's do you? deterioration of performance ? due to the contact of the graphics card ?

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Jan 7 2007, 02:42 PM) When u're using heavy heatsinks on the VGA cards, it'll make the VGA card bent down, and when bent down happens, it will force the PCi-E slot to be bent down also, and when this happens, you can see that the PCI-E is kinda sliding down from the metal pin inside, and when it happens, the deterioration of performance takes place...  to me it's quite simple, either there's contact or no contact.....if there's no contact then there will be error.... can just build a bracket to support the weight...not a problem for me...
