Hey Guys,

 

Yesterday I painted my GPU as a practice for my next computer build, and I've already learnt lots, but I thought I'd post it here for two reasons.

 

First of all I'd like to hear any tips or any issues you can see from just looking at it or from experience, and second I thought you might appreciate a good looking card :D

 

 

 

(sorry for the low res pics) 

 

Enjoy!

Great except you kept black edition ?

Maybe paint the fan housing thingys or print of some vinyl or something for them

It's honestly only a half effort attempt, it's not supposed to be the final, I'm gonna spray paint a new RX 480 with the armor X2 or Nitro cooler, this was just the learning experience.

Anyway, the black edition is ironic and funny :P
