SLI Bridge Painting Opinions

SofterThanQTips · December 25, 2015

So I've been getting the parts in for my new red/black PC build. I had trouble finding an SLI bridge that I actually liked. I originally wanted the Asus ROG SLI bridge, but seeing as I can get that anywhere for a reasonable price I opted for the Nvidia 2-Way SLI bridge.

Seeing as how I was going with a red/black build. It clearly didn't fit the color scheme very well. So, I decided to paint it.

I left the green in the Nvidia emblem as I wasn't quite sure how to tackle that. Since it lights up I didn't want to mess up any of the LED's so I just decided to leave it green. If anyone knows a good way for me to change that to red let me know! If I end up deciding I hate the green too much I'll probably just color it in with a black sharpie. Thanks!

For SLI Bridges the best I see is to usually to sleeve or wrap them in vinyl wrap.

Actually I painted this. Since it comes apart very easily I figured it wouldn't hurt to paint it. Although if I come to find out it doesn't work properly I'll be doing vinyl on another one!
