One year ago I bought a RX6650xt for my linux desktop, specifically the MSI MECH 2X version (it was cheap). I had issues with noise when doing graphics-intensive tasks, but the performance was sufficient, so I did not want to buy another card. I looked online for potential solutions, and I learned about the GPU fan shroud mod, and I wanted to try it! Here are the results! As you can see, this is a very simple mod, I simply replaced the gpu shroud with two noctua 120mm static-pressure optimized fans.
