G751 M.2 bracket 3d printed and heatsinked

[aeolisio]

After searching these forums for a M.2 bracket for my G751JY-DB73X G-Sync I actually made a 3d printed M.2 bracket myself. Well i made 13 versions before i found one that was perfect but its on shapeways if anyone still needs one. It has an open top for heatsinks. It also leaves enough room for the 850 EVO to fit naked. With heatsinks attached i got an average 7 degree drop in crystaldiskmark with the SM951 and 11 degrees with the stock XP941 which is a lot more then i expected.

UPDATED NEW M.2 VERSIONS
Need to drill holes yourself but the cleanest option-

I love it - the fact that you made this yourself - 3D printing is going to be the revolutionary tech that takes us all post-industrial to personal-artisan again only high-tech, not smithing and tanning leather... we will be CAD designing things, then molecular constructing things (later on), the whole implication of this is that sooner or later, we will all be making our own laptops (and everything else) in 3D printers... Star Trek here we come... slowly, but surely.

The technology is advancing so quickly. Im excited to start working with 3d printed carbon fiber we just got our new filaments but it will be awhile before anyone like shapeways offers it for sale to the public. Im actually designing an entire carbon fiber body kit for my hayabusa. It will be amazing to see people changing the aerodynamics and properties of vehicles with structural parts they designed themselves. I imagine in 5 years you would be able to choose custom body panels for your car and maybe design the entire car yourself or walk into an ikea and design your printed furniture. Exciting times indeed.

Sure which 2.5 drive are you using it for? Im working on several versions.

I use these but anything 20x20x5 or smaller will fit i prefer 19 to give some spacing from the bracket.

I currently have the original 1 TB platter drive, but I will be replacing it with an SSD soon.
