EVGA GTX 970 Paint Job Complete!

Previously posted about some questions regarding my project to make my gpu better match my setup. Here are the results! I'm pretty proud of how it turned out, first time doing anything like this. What do you think?

 

Here's a link to the pictures I took as I was going: http://imgur.com/a/dulzh

Good job, looks really clean.

Wouldn't it have been easier just to get an MSI card? :P

 

Please, this looks much better than MSI's cards.

 

I'm just kidding mate. Your preferences are your preferences, ha.

I used some Duplicolor Vinyl and Fabric spray paint, it's for like dashboards and stuff but it works well since it applies on really thin

I'm still trying to decide whether or not i like them. I guess we'll have to see. Not sure what to do about them at the moment

I'm not saying it looks better or worse, I'm saying it's a lot of effort to make it look near identical :P

 

Yes, BUT I got this one for free from a friend  :D

 

Ah fair enough

That paint job is awesome! I have this card and I commend you on keeping the blue; it contrasts nicely with the red. Well done!!
