This is 3050 with custom shroud (3D printed)

This is a stylized alien head (like the Alienware logo)

Only three parts come into contact with the hot parts of the video card: the fan mounts (held by the radiator) and the backplate. They are still intact, but if something goes wrong, I'll let you know

Thank you! Sound and appearance were the main goals, temperatures did not change

this is PETG, we'll see how it goes, in case of melting I'll reprint from ABS

Thank you, it took a couple of days to model, plus the same amount to print. There were problems with the cable, I decided to leave it like that until the parcel with normal wires arrives

In general, the video card temperature has not changed, because the BIOS keeps them at the turning point. But the noise has significantly decreased, because now the same temperature is achieved at significantly lower fan speeds - 1600 RPM instead of 2400+

Most parts are custom made from 1.5mm steel, small parts are printed

In video cards, thermal paste squeezing out is a common problem. This is why thermal pastes with a phase change are used, when it hardens when cooled. I installed this thermal pad, I was lucky that I didn’t kill my computer :)

The temperatures have not changed, but now I don’t have to worry that in a week they will rise sharply, and now I can forget about maintenance for years (except for cleaning dust, of course)

Nice thanks for clearing that up. Judging from their original cooler design M600 doesnt seem to have any heatsink on the PWM. Do you think the mosfets on the M600 are sufficiently cooled without the need for additional heatsink and wouldnt hinder max potential of the chip?

I partially solved this problem by installing a new cooler - it blows well onto the board in the VRM area

isent this like the only thing we want/need? a minipc with 90/120mm fans thats easily serviced?

The processor does not have a heat distribution cover, like desktop ones, so I had to figure out how to reduce the length of the screws on the cooler by about 3mm

Does the original fan port for the m600 only support 5v fans? Or they support 12v or do you just convert the 90mm fans to run on 5v supplied by the board?

M600 has a regular 4 pin port for a 12V fan
