OK, so I hmm'd and haw'd about it long enough. I removed the shim from my 9800 Pro. I figured since I already modifed it with a VGA Silencer and ramsinks, I already voided the warranty. I wasn't so sure that I was getting good contact between the Silencer and the core and boy was I right. My 100% stable core OC went from 425 to 437.
I tried to use dental floss but it kept fraying and breaking. So I very carefully sliced it off with a razor blade.
Anyway, I got a new digicam today so here are the pics:
On the cutting board...
[H]ard Attitude: 1, Shim: 0
Ahh, nice to see a gap...
Ain't she pretty?
Next on the hit list, mounting a 60mm fan over the Silencer intake.
