Will this Gamecube mainboard cut work?

[gamecubeFuzzi]

Hello,

I drew a scetch which shows the exact mainboard cut.

I removed the middle from the heatsink in the pictures and gave the ports / connectors labels for easier orientation.

Because the picture was so big I cut it middle horizontal and made 2 pictures.

I marked an area with a white circle in the second picture is it ok to cut between those capacitors?

The red lines show the cut.

Will this work? Because I want to be sure it will I would like to ask you if you can check it exactly? Thanks !








Thank you so much for your help !!

Kind regards

Im sorry for my bad english ^^

We will have to leave it to the experts, have you thoroughly read over the cutting/trimming guides here in the hardware section?

Thanks.

Yes of course I did, but I want to ensure to do all right

I didnt realize the white circled from the guide, which is shown in my second picture and I love my Gamecube so much so I dont want to destroy it.

you can cut the board any shape you like as long as you stay outside the OMGWTF boundaries...
the only thing you need to understand about your cut is the relocations and alternate pinouts...

make sure you understand what and where you need to solder and relocate before you cut..

Thank you.

I think I understood.

Now I want to ensure the cut will be right. Do you want to check my sketches please? I dont want to do any careless mistake.

Its only an ensurance.

PS: I wasnt able to recognice the white marked area from the guide, shown in my second picture. But check everything pleeeaase
