So I thought I would provide a MCW80 adapter plate modding guide for the GTX 470 since Swiftech has yet to release anything for the 400 series that's actually in stock. I know you can buy the G80 kit, but some of us are dirt poor uni students and would rather save on the enormous shipping costs...

I'm using 8800GTX SLI with E8400 @ 4.2GHz and I wanna upgrade my video card. I'm thinking of something ~250-300 CAD. I don't mind if it's used... I plan to watercool the card anyways. I see that in the forums, some people are selling 5850 for 230USD? that seems like a great deal... is that the...
