    Hey guys i modded my gpu fans to run on the full 5v full speed nonstop. Atm its running off of usb but im about to map out a 5v internal source in a few days. The mod dropped my temps 15 c in almost every game so far. I was hitting 105 in need for speed most wanted 97 in call of duty 4 and now im getting like 92 in nfs and 85 86 in call of duty 4 . I will be posting a tutorial on how to do it after i get it done.

    I also just tapped into my usb board as well. It works the same though the fans do stay on during sleep mode. I dd this because I didn't want to slip up soldering the motherboard.
