Hello,

 

Im interested in purchasing the MSI R7 370 4gb graphics card, but im wondering how hard would it be to remove the front plates and paint them for a black and white color to match my build. Would it be an easy job like an Geforce GTX Reference graphics card or difficult? Thanks.

Here I have a guide under GPU Painting that goes over that and a referral to  Arct1c0n's guide he did with his MSI card:

Even easier, normally there are a few screws to remove it from the heatsink, and then a few more to remove the fans. After that you paint the shroud and put it all back together.
