  • Looking for dead dual slot blower style GPU

    I'm trying to track down a really cheap blower style GPU preferably dead could have been dropped into a bucket of water while running for all that it matters. I want to pull the whole thing apart and turn it into a Raspberry Pi case so it would look like a GPU just sitting there with a few USB cables popping out of the rear (USB / HDMI). Something like an out of warranty 1060 founders edition for example would I think make for a good candidate and have enough room inside after removing the heat sink elements etc.

    I plan as going as far as removing the contact pins so it could safely be plugged into a motherboard but not do anything beyond physical support.

      That would make a decent candidate can I bother you to take a measurement of it's height so I can confirm if I have enough space. Normally i'd cringe at doing it to something working like that but it's past it's gaming shelf life.
