This might sound a little weird but I am very colour coordinated and with the rest of my components all black, seeing the Gigabyte 280x's Blue PCB really annoys me.
I am actually considering spray painting the PCB. I have seen it done a few times but also some people have failed it and killed their hardware which is putting me off as I saved up for a long time to get two 280x's.
Is there anyone or any-place that would actually let me trade these for a black PCB edition. I would trade the 280xs for another set of 280x in black or a black set of 770s.
Another thing I have been looking at is backplates. They manage to hide the back PCB pretty well. I haven't really found any that match my board which is a bit disappointing.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I simply "make my own" backplate, as in just cut out a bit of black material into the shape of the card lol.. I really cant stand it being blue ahaha
