Cut it in a nice shape, drilled the holes.

Painted the whole thing, including some foam I cut up for a better seal.

(Ignore the giant mess lol…my family neglected this garage)

I think it turned out nice. Should prevent some spill damage doo.

Temps before and after in the same exact test conditions (same tune, benchmark, no background apps etc). I used Furmark and Cinebench 2024)

GPU before: 62 GPU, 85 Hot, 76 Mem

GPU after: 55 GPU, 78 Hot, 66 Mem (adjusted for +3C ambient)

CPU before: 62C

CPU after: 63C (66C recorded, but ambient was +3C)

No benchmark score improvements but the GPU temp dropped a lot.

        Yeah, I’m pretty sure it is. I have this issue with any images uploaded directly to/hosted by lemmy.zip. I think it’s because your instance saves them as .avif files now, which I hadn’t even heard of until I started trying to figure out the issue, and I don’t think I’ve yet seen any other instances that do so. I have to open the images/posts in a full-on web browser to see them. I think some devices and apps just don’t know how to display them. It’s not your fault, you didn’t do anything wrong. Just technology being wonky :)
