In this tutorial, I will show you how to turn an old graphics card into a display of how a GPU works!
Supplies
To make this you will need:
- An old GPU
- Some sturdy card or wood
- Tools (Screwdriver)
Take Apart Your GPU
I will not go into great detail about how to take a GPU apart because different GPU's have different ways you need to take them apart. For me, it was as simple as:
- Unplugging the fan
- Unscrewing the heatsink
- Unscrewing the PCIe slot cover
- Unplugging the VGA port

Planing is a vital step if you want your graphics card display to look good. For me, I laid out all of the separate parts in a way I liked and made a final decision on where I wanted each part to be. You will also want to cut your card/wood to size.
Mount It on the Card/wood

To mount it onto my card I used a hot glue gun which held it on well, but if you are using wood and want to then you could always use screws to hold it on.
Done

You have finished, this can be hung up on a wall or even framed. I hope you enjoyed!
