Make sure you can get replacement fans before you abuse them

I can! It’s an EVGA FTW3.

Even if I couldn’t, it’s ducted to the side of an SFF case, so I could just disconnect them, wire the PWM lead from the GPU and use 120mm case fans.

The card rarely goes above 300W now and ingests ambient air, so the fans hardly spin up anyway.

EVGA, nice, all you needed to say haha

I wish they still made GPUs :(. Even an Intel Arc.

Hell, if they could somehow source 3090 dies, they’d make a killing selling them in this market, heh.
