those thermal pad on ram chip ? if its a new card its easy to remove, they havent melt ( dunno what terms to use ) so when u remove the cooler, they are in pieces (solid form). After you used the card for a period, dont think its easy to remove, those thermal pad easily stick to the ram and will split apart when u dismount the cooler.

LOL! I guess I have to remove them while they are still fresh? All right, do it after I take my shower XD Thanks for the info.

even when its still new it doesnt clamp itself shut like those on a normal ram.

the kind they use on a gc is way more easy to dismantle.

but yeah what lichye said kinda true.if u run it at high temp for quite a while it tends to disintegrate when u take em off.

at least thats what happen on my 8400GM lah.those on a gc never break apart for me.

Well, those thermalpad is terrible only when it has a lot of dust there, it will break easily when u take the hsf off.
But i always put them back and working nicely too.
So far, i take off all GTX hsf before, evne it's 295

if you guys need picture guidance, let me know, i can post.

I would say around 5c-10c depending on how good the cooler dissipates the heat

i need it

ya meimei it will be nice if u post the guide

So far nowaday which GTX260 216sp has the best price:performance:high overclock ability ?

the parit gtx260 sonic is a good choice ?

or buy the old GTX260 192sp 65nm

speaking of GTX295, what screwdriver did u use to remove those little ultra tight screws? as far as my attempts go, i pretty much destroyed all the head of my screwdrivers just by trying to unscrew the screws of GTX295

hey guys gtx200 series still strong ka now?

what you mean by still strong?
power sucking? or heat generation?

performance against 5850 and others.. including direct x

for current games like Splinter Cell Conviction and BFBC2

i think you should collect money and just buy 5870/400 Series instead

my GTX260+ is not sufficient.. for me la.. GTX260+ on splinter cell conviction runs at 30-50fps max.. you want smooth.. must get 60fps STABLE
