RANT: nVidia GPU packaging

[ThisIsMatt]

Who designed these ghetto trash gpu packages where the plastic casing is taller than the heatspreader? <sarcasm>Makes for great heatsink contact and thus excellent thermal transfer</sarcasm>

I already sanded the plastic down quite a bit but I'm still not happy with the contact and will probably do it again :|

I think ATI's are also like that...

atis chips are flater than the "ghetto trash gpus" that nvidia makes. All the nvidia cards i've had, had the dang indentation in the middle. so tired of risking the card just to sand it and make it flat
