Description
I couldnt find a shroud for this specific GPU model so designed one myself. You can revert this mod without trace in case you want to sell the GPU.
Â
Printing:
Depending on the printer the shroud could be too big to fit horizontally. Either split the part or print diagonally with some supports as I did.
Assembly:
The brackets fit directly onto the fan grille after removing the origingal fan shroud. Original screws from the shroud can be used.
The fans can be screwed to the brackets from beneath (before attaching the brackets to the GPU).
I used a Y-splitter for the fan cables and connected it to the external fan port of the GPU.
The shroud itself will be screwed to the fans. It guides the air directly onto the grille, no bypass possible as with many other GPU fan mods.Â
Â
The fan curve is fully customizable in the EVGA precision x1 tool or other tools like fan control.
My temps dropped significantly with two Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM 120mm fans and I can barely here the fans spinning at full speed (which is never really needed anyway).Â
Â
The pictures are from older versions but you get the idea.
