This walk through is mainly focused on the GTX 295 card. I will be showing how to remove the graphic card cover, removing both GPU’S from the heat sink, cleaning of the GPU’s and the GPU heat sink, re-applying TIM (Thermal compound) to the GPU’s, re-assembling the GPU’s back onto the heat sink, and lastly re assembling the GPU card cover.
*NOTE*. Taking apart the BFG tech model VOIDS ALL WARRANTY. Taking apart the EVGA model however does not void warranty.
I have provided detailed pictures that will guide you through this process.
The card that I have at my disposal is a BFG tech GTX 295. As you can see below it is ready and waiting to be dissected.
Tools needed:
1. TIM/Thermal compound (I used MX-2)
2. Paper tower/terry cloth (to whip off excess TIM)
3. Two sized phillips star head screw drivers,
4. 100% Isopropynol (for cleaning contact surfaces)
5. Needle nose pliars (for unmounting the rear dvi/slot shield)
