Bleh, I hate tagging Chinese music. Mainly because I can't read Chinese, and all the CD's my parents buy are bootleg, so it's not in the DB.

Just got the new thermal compound swapped in and now using the GTS250 for PhysX. As usual, Evga dumped a load of thermal compound onto the GPU and stuffed the cooler on there to spread it out :|

Time for a bombardment of pictures.

VVV Look closely at this picture and tell me what's wrong.

Completely misread your post.

I thought you said you were replacing thermal paste on the GTS 250, then I saw the pics in your first post and was like 'WTF?!?!'

EDIT: *facepalm* I need some sleep.

Well, anyways. I'll go ahead and point out that Nvidia has a manufacturing flaw on my card. The IHS for the GPU has a spec of metal stuck to the top of it. Look like while they were pouring the metal (if they do pour molds for the IHS) a little dripped on it and got baked to it. It's on there good and looks like it's apart of the IHS (baked in, not added on).

I'll either contact EVGA for permissions to sand it off while maintaining my warranty, or request an RMA.

Wtf? They sold the card like that?

The GPU on that thing is freaking massive.
