Description

The ASRock RX 580 runs hot and loud because its undersized heatsink forces the stock fans to spin at "jet engine" speeds just to keep up. 

 

Since replacing the heatsink isn't practical, I swapped the noisy stock shroud for two random 92mm 3000rpm AliExpress fans, resulting lower temperatures and near silent operation even at 100% load!

 

Stock fans (w/ OC + UV): Max Temperature: 84°c - 48.2db

 

Custom Cooling (Same OC + UV): Max Temperature: 71°c - 28.4db

 

(Noise levels were measured using an uncalibrated app, so please treat these figures as relative comparison data rather than absolute values.)

 

I recommend printing this with PETG or better for heat resistance. However, since my PETG was poor quality, I tested it with PLA and two months later, it’s still holding up perfectly, so I guess PLA is a viable option too

 

Fasteners: 

 

 8x M5x10 mm Fan Screws 

 6x M3x15 mm Self Tapping Screws

 

This mod has been designed for the ASRock Phantom Gaming X RX 580 and is unlikely to fit other RX 580s!
