Posted November 28, 2016 I have merged the competiton. Sorry for the potato pics, blame my iPad. The only reason I'm doing this is because I broke the original cooler (2/3 fans had died and I already had the Titan cooler sitting around) and me and a friend decided this would be the best worst thing to do. It actually started like, a few months ago Getting the metal plate off the cooler to cool VRMs and whatnot (from an earlier project) Spoiler Spoiler I'll take pictures of the various plates I used tomorrow as it's quite late now, and yes, it currently does display haven't tried with drivers though.

Posted November 28, 2016 Um why? I mean i guess it will look cool, but you're getting worse performance? Or do you need the bragging rights that bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise is going to be an interesting one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise is going to be an interesting one. Had another card folding, there wasn't enough space I'm used to thermal throttling (after a like 5 different mounts with an AiO it still thermal throttled) and the card itself is kinda neutered (stock clocks require like +300~mV) and I really couldn't give a shit about noise USEFUL LINKS: PSU Tier List | F@H stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs ghetto mounting. Needs VRAM cooling plate. The shroud itself has a 4 mounting holes I can use, two at the front and back, and some L-brackets made from 4mm thick aluminium should solve that issue c: USEFUL LINKS: PSU Tier List | F@H stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 30, 2016 Author A few updates. WARNING: Picture heavy Spoiler Made a new mounting plate, and now the contact plate actually sits properly Now I just need to make a VRAM cooling plate, mount the fan and mount the shroud.
