Hi all,

I just did the mod described in

this thread

except I used a tiny screwdriver from an eyeglass repair kit to pop off the capacitors and I used a rear window defogger repair kit to connect the inductors - Worked like a charm!!!! Crystal clear 2D with my GF2 Ultra and it took only minutes!

Thanks!

Great, same as a Radeon then... :)

Seriously though good for you, wonder why Ultra's are not sold like that.

Pay that much for a card and have to do anything to it, I can see if you were overclocking, But just to make it look like it should, What can you say to something like that

you can say that it is a blistering fast card with a few problems on it just like any other card. the solution to this problem is just a little more complex then overclocking or tweaking drivers or chaning registry settings or flashing bios :p

I must say that its low price tag inspired me to mod it...I can't see attempting this six months ago when this card was $500...
