Custom psi shroud

[GeneralGusher]

Hey

i wanted to build a custom psu and maybe a gpu shroud.

i was wondering what materials are best for this and if there are any tutorials that I can watch to make this?

GPU shroud how do you think that would work?

Not a shroud but a backplate

Best material is anything solid that you like the look of and you don't really need a tutorial, just make it the right size for your case. Any tutorial would basically just be a drawn out way to say "measure it, then bend it, then attach it".

I’ve seen people mostly use acrylic. Is there any specific reason why or is it just bc it looks good?

Just looks. A shroud made of acrylic has the exact same airflow properties as a shroud made of cardboard.

Ok thanks! I was thinking of using cardboard but i didn’t think that was a good material for it

Acrylic would be best for it as it's easy to work with and customize, places like Coldzero specialize in this kind of stuff.
