I also had to cut of off about one centimeter of the stock Epia TC boards heatsink.

I have not yet managed to get the exact timings for the horizontal-pane (800 pixels) so the image still lookes a little "jaggy". But the vertical is ok.

800x480x70Hz or 800x480x75Hz seems to get me the best picture on my Lilliput using the Radeion, since 60Hz looks like crap.

Some pictures:

The "low-profile" heatsink

The extended riser:

ha ha ha. way to go dude. you are using TC board too!

well, i have the extension cable as well. but my was too long instead of short. However, i have reservation about using extensin cables as PCI signals are quite sensitive (standing wave) to path. but great that it work for u.

looks like your dremel did a fair bit of work. my dremel shaft is wobbling a bit and am reluctant to use it too much.

willl post result tonight after i test it.
