You can't really see the blower fan once you install a corsair hg10 a1 anyway. The fan shroud covers most of it. I guess if you are looking up at your case and can see the bottom side of your gpu...it might be an issue then??

I don't have one YET, but i was wondering if i could replace the blower fan on it for the sake of aesthetics of my build. I was just thinking about it because i plan on putting a Corsair HG10 A1 on it, and i have to take the reference fan off anyways

Like an aftermarket cooler?
