[fade2green514]

i was wondering if anyone knew how to change video card voltage? i googled it but all i found was stuff to do with like soldering and stuff, thats probably the only way to do it but thats not something im willing to do. any ideas people?

Um...they are made for a specific voltage, why do you wish to alter it?

Maybe a pencil mod or a new BIOS?

yea actually i am on air, nv silencer though... keeps this baby below 45 in a load actually i accidentally stopped the fan before (sata cable got in the way) and it was at 70C without effecting performance almost at all... lol
that's how i know it can handle some heat...
i am saving for some water cooling though i plan on having multiple radiators just for the fun lol
(for my next rig i mean to say, already got $650 saved up )
that is assuming i GET a next rig... i probably won't just buy a new one ill probably sell this one if possible.... when the time comes.
