So... I'm helping my girlfriend build a gaming PC, and she wants a white/purple build. The case was no issue, nor was finding lighting. I can even find white RAM for her.

The only issue is that I can't seem to find a purple or white GPU for her, preferably a NVidia GTX 980 (paired with a 4790k so she can edit as well as game).

Are there any out there...?! Or even a company that makes custom faceplates?

I've searched quite a bit, but can't find much. Right now, we are looking at the PNY GeForce GTX 980 4GB XLR8 Pro Overclocked right now, which isn't bad, but not quite what she's looking for.
 


Is that safe to do? Sounds like it will raise temps. (Will watch the video after work.)
 


Yeah its pretty safe if you are careful removing and re fitting it. I dont see why it would raise temps?
 
Rob, it seems like it would hinder thermal dissipation, wouldn't it? Never attempted water cooling, so it would likely stay air cooled for a while, and thermal dissipation is a concerned as I don't want either of us to burn up a $400 GPU due to some fancy painting.
