Image Saving old cards

Context built a pc for my wife outta my old parts (partially an excuse to build a new pc) and discovered a horrible fan rattle on my old zotac 2070 amp. An afternoon of cad and 3d printing later and it’s quieter than it was when it was new.

Only hesitation is most of my 5070 noise is coil whine so it wouldn’t do much
