My Alienware pc was missing the original fan shroud causing it to overheat so I printed a new one for it and it worked perfectly
I printed it in black PLA which has held up fine over the months I have been using it without any warping from CPU temps
My design is not the same as the original, it is a fair bit smaller to hopefully vent the air quicker and allow some extra space inside the case
The shroud is open on the top as the side panel when reinstalled covers the open side thus blowing air out the back of the case
Things to lookout for before printing
- You will need some screws or pins to mount it to the fan, I used some pc fan screws
- The screw holes may be a little bit tight
