Mikepedo's V6K Cooling Mod!
16.07.06 at 21:32:56

well here it is:
http://www.3dfxzone.it/news/puntatore.php?uid=3218

the coolers don't look freaky, nice copper cooling and it has a stable cores/mem 183Mhz opperation

But I prefer the original coolers or Gary's Prototype Cooler Assembly, though still this is very creative for sure there!

here the whole card:

Poor Voodoo5 6000 AGP 128MB Rev.A 3700 Lips Sealed

Reply #10 - 18.07.06 at 10:55:33 I don't think that the weight could just rip those VSAs off, ball grid soldering should be able to take a lot more than that. Just try to rip off the northbridge of an old mainboard, and you'll see how much they can take!

Reply #11 - 19.07.06 at 05:02:02 I would suggest that he invest in one of those 3 dollar tail brackets from Gary. Not only do they look cool 8) but they add much needed support in this case http://www.falconfly-central.de/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=market;action=display...

Reply #13 - 03.11.06 at 17:22:10 Maybe from Voodoo4 4500's which were lay'n around on ebay, everytime he found a 4500 with a 3dfx sticker he bought it then he used the stickers of thier fans on the 6K's unless he made them stickers himself which is also an idea
