Hello,
normally I would just try doing it, but since the gpu was expensive and I can’t afford another one if i break it, I want to make sure to ask first.
I have Sapphire RTX 3060 Ti, blower model. But I am tired of how loud it is, every time I do some 3D stuff, or play a game I have to listen to the jet engine next to my head, so my plan is to remove the shroud with the fan and then ziptie two 120mm noctua fans I have to the heatsink block on the card.
The issue is that in most videos and photos I found, when they unscrew the shroud, it always comes off along with the heatsink, which I don’t want, since I don’t want to screw around with damaging the heatpads and having to reapply cooling paste etc.
So I was wondering if i remove all the screws except the 4 ones holding the heat sink at the bottom, will it be possible to just remove the shroud with the fan, without removing the heatsink?
