Description
I'd like to share my deshroud mod for the ASUS GeForce RTX 3070 DUAL graphics card. It holds two 120mm fans (120x120x25) with standard mounting holes.
I printed it with a wall count of 3 and 40% cubic infill. It may not look very stable, but it is! My goal was to maximize airflow and make the model easy to print :)
For assembly, you need:
The mounting poles are numbered, so it's impossible to mix them up after printing:
Assemble the mounting poles so that the numbers match the following picture. Note, number 3 and 4 are not on the circuit board but on the backplate.
So after using this deshroud for almost a year now, I noticed that skewing the M2s directly into the poles is not optimal since 2 of the 6 bolts got to lose and fell out of the card. So I added models of the poles with a 3.2mm hole for M2 threaded inserts.
