Got a 6950 with broken fans so I did the obvious thing:

i remember doing that to my old 9800 and the fans made it cooler than the original fan :toast:

what with the stock heatsink or a aftermarket?

KainXS · Oct 8, 2012

it was with a stock on a 9800 dark knight, center fan died straped on 2 90mm's on the side and it was better than the original.

micro-mod

small mod I made way back.

Athlonite · Oct 15, 2012

we used to do something similar with old CPU's cut all the pins off and very carefully drill a hole in them then add a spring clip and keys

HDD cooler/silencer combo. Simple, yet extremely efficient.

Temps drop from 38-40 to 30-32. Almost inaudible.

EDIT: forgot to mention it fits in 5.25" bay like a charm.

laptop hard drive, nintendo vid game case

I took an old 60 gig laptop ide hdd and put it into a gutted nintendo game case (Airwolf) .
the nes games had sum special screws holding them together so i ripd the case apart and added my own.
notice the screws on the back in ghetto fashion, do not match and aren't even the same kind of screw head.
i connect this to my wii an play games off it using an ide to usb adapter, works excellent

You know no matter how ghetto this mod is... You destroyed a classic right there (Air Wolf). :slap:

if u didnt appreciate the first one.......

people dont appreciate mutilated nintendo stuff ,
but heres the mario/duck cunt - 80 gig sata laptop drive mod i did at same time as the airwolf junk mod
haha, i had multiple copies of the games and a need for hard drive enclosures.
they go perfect into the old NES game cases for added protection, and have the right mix of garbage and nostalgia

I like the excess of TIM and how it looks like it could amputate a limb if you touch it.

A little too much thermal paste, otherwise a pretty good mod.
