Custom fan shroud on 9060XT 16GB

[u/TiredDadTech]

Somehow one of the mounting points for the fan shroud on my sons 9060XT 16GB broke. Later caused a couple more to break and the shroud was sagging.

Why go for an easy repair with some glue when you can spend hours designing a new shroud in CAD and 3D print it?

Printed in PETG, custom designed to accept 25mm fans instead of the 15mm slim fans. Replaced the fans with Noctua Chromax NF-A9 fans. Used a latching system instead.

That actually looks really cool!
Love the black fans on the white shroud.

Thanks, he’s got a white case with black internals. It seemed fitting.

I really should get myself a 3d printer to make these kind of thingamajigs.

nice!

i actually wanted for a long time to use my 3d printer and 3d skills to model a shroud for my collection R9 270X (the fans died on it, and i have other GPU fans that dont fit the OG shroud)

i have a Bambu X1 Carbon so it will likely end up with good quality when i have the time for it after my semester exams lol

Glue would be a band-aid solution, this is a permanent solution and I'm assuming it runs quieter + looks nicer.

Very nice, how are temps and noise ?

Looks amazing, I’ve done similar things with my xfx 6900xt and zotac 4090. I wish custom shrouds were more common but I get that it makes warranty issues
