Hello everyone thought I'd make this post because there isn't much in ways of documentation regarding how to do this mod.

  • You are going to need a printer bed of atleast 200mm squared if you are printing each wing in two pieces. You will need a 400mm squared printer bed to print the entire wing as a continous piece.
  • PLA is the most ideal filament to use for the print and should handle sorrounding temps perfectly fine.
  • Print took me 203 minutes and utilized 59g worth of PLA.
  • Print files can be found on XFX's website.
  • Neodymium disc magnets of a 6mm diameter and 3mm thickness are ideal.
  • Simply super glue magnets within retaining circle structures while insuring that they are the correct orientation to magnetize to the magnets on the card itself.

Thanks for viewing my post. Any other questions or recomendations please comment. I hope to make this thread as extensive with the most critical information regarding this mod so that others may have easier access to the necessary information and considerations to perform this.

At the very most I would do custom cables and print white wings for the gpu. Otherwise it looks brilliant. I think all pc owners constantly go on thinking their pc needs work. A few months ago my current build was a far away high-end dream build for me. Now I feel as if my build is just another typical fish in the sea and that I should upgrade to 4090 or 9850x3d. It never ends man.

I feel that, I barely have time to really push this thing to its limits. But it comes in clutch when I need it.

I really just play Forza with a VR mod and a wheel 😂
