This listing is for 1x custom printed Lucio computer fan grill/shroud/ cover.
This is designed to be placed over a LED or RGB fan to accent your gaming computer.
These are printed to order with PLA filament.
If you are wondering what size fans you have, 120mm is definitely the most common size. If you have difficulty, send me a message and I can identify the size of your fan.
Four (4x) fan screws are included for mounting.
Please note that all of my products are 3D printed and may have imperfections characteristic of 3D printing, including layer lines and scars. These imperfections have no effect on the appearance of the mounted fan cover.
**No fan included, fan cover only**

Q/A Section for reference:
---What are these made of?
-PLA plastic with 50% infill.
---How do these affect airflow?
-Airflow changes vary from grill to grill, but the majority of our designs have a minimal impact on airflow. We have typically found that grills that cover less than 50% of the fan's surface area have the least impact on airflow, so most of our covers have been designed to cover less than 50%. It is noteworthy that the center of the fan is "dead space" that does not contribute to airflow - the fan blades are the really critical area.
---How do these affect temperatures?
-Temperatures correlate with airflow, so it varies from grill to grill. When testing with a Hyper 212 BE on a Ryzen 7 3700, less restrictive fan grill designs (<35% coverage) caused a 1-4c increase in CPU temperature on average, whereas more obstructive fan grill designs (>60% coverage) caused a 7-10c increase depending on how obstructive they were.
-It's noteworthy that this test was performed directly on the CPU cooler, which is a worst case scenario. If mounted on the case itself, temperatures are expected to change less than these values assuming that airflow is otherwise good.
---How do these affect noise levels?
-Once again, this varies from grill to grill. On average, our grills add about 1-3db to their mounted fan which is difficult to notice but less practical designs like the Empire or Republic logo that cover >60% of the fans surface area can add 5-8db. (which can be offset by adjusting fan speed)
