Hyper Beast Mod

Go to solution Solved by Charcoal_,

As long as nothing blocks airflow/heatsinks you should be fine. Its just that you shouldn't put anything on anything metal (unless its stove paint like Linus did to a stock intel cooler).

Hi all, I'm currently planning a case mod with a "hyper beast" theme (the skin from CS GO) link to it here I'm going to use a combination of vinyl stickers and plasti dip to get as much of the pattern on the outside of my case as possible but my question is this, can I use vinyl stickers on my PC components? By which I mean the plastic bit of my graphics card, my PSU and my SSD, and possibly the pump/water block on my AIO. I've tried googling it to no avail. Just to be clear I'm not asking if they'll stick I'm asking if it will affect cooling/heat dissipation.

PS if I end up finishing this mod then I'll be posting a build log probably by september/october this year latest

ok thanks, so not for my PSU then?

For the shroud it should be fine, just dont cover the fan or rear of it or touch the insides.

Ok thanks a lot

No Problem! Personally I have only ever cut a hole in a PCI cover so can't help with suggestions or advice doing the actual mod.
