8800 GT OC edition. It error 43s, and BFG is out of biz, so why not see if it'll work in a slim case by making the plate smaller.

This.
Which reminds me, i have a huge hammer here that i try to use for repair and modification work all the time. It actually says "WARWOOD" on it. I took that as a sign.
Actually, correction. The Warwood usually comes out after the attempt at repair or modification has met failure.
If it can't be fixed, it can always be more broken.

FUCKING RIGHT.
Also, the warning label on the side of the thing is classically badass:

I just love how, in addition to its already belligerent name, it actually expressly threatens bodily harm, RIGHT ON THE TOOL!

That is pretty great, in a "I'm trying really hard not to spit coffee all over my keyboard reading this" way.

You know a hammer is capable of fucking shit up when they have to warn you about fucking shit up on accident.

That Warwood looks like it makes a mighty fine tool for hitting the shit out of things with.

Re: Grinding on a video card? Yep, I did it.
im just guna throw this out there.... the voltage generated from you placing your foot on the carpet is enough to blow one of those cards. So i'm not sure if its guna work anymore, because you werent wearing gloves when you put it to the grinder.
Still, its a lulz video. I have a BFG power supply, its pimpin. I'm selling it to my friend hehehe.

It error 43'd on games in the first place, so no loss. It works as a replacement for a kaput onboard on a PC that does nothing but browse the intarwebz.
