Ever since I introduced the original Noctua Fan mount for the Gamecube back in 2020, I wanted to revisit it to see if it could be improved upon. One thing I never liked was the ugly external fan screws that mount the Noctua fan to the adapter. Sure you could use black screws instead of the included silver ones, but I decided to just make the fan clip into place from behind eliminating the screws entirely.

When installing the new fan holder, make sure the clips are to the left and right of the fan when you you install it into the Gamecube fan holder so they will clear the metal chassis. Otherwise the plate won't sit flush with the fan shroud.

You will need a pretty well tuned printer for this otherwise the clips might be too tight or too loose. It's designed to be snug and the fan should click into place.
