Heads up for all Nvidia owners!

I was transfering a Blue Ray drive from my old machine to my newer one and when I opened up my new machine I got a shock. There was a 3.5" x 6" heavy vinyl sticker, with NVidia logo, that had fallen off my NVidia GTX 275 card and it was just laying on top of my power supply. Thank god there were no air vents/fans in that area. If was big enough to cause some major problems. I guess the heat of the card had loosed the adhesive and it had just fallen off. What a hazard! Damn!

Next time your in your machine you might want to yank off any stickers they put on your NVidia card. Perhaps your supposed to take them off when you buy it, but then why put it on there? It was just something I never even thought about.

In any case, I did get the drive in and everything is working well....Just a heads up!

I've never had this happen, but I can understand your concern. Good thing it worked out OK.
