Quickly designed a diffuser for the LEDs on the X570 TUF wifi motherboard as they'd shoot straight out of the glass front panel, something I didn't care for. Was happy with how it came out, so I decided to make three different versions and throw them up on here to share.

3 different versions:

"Asus_X570tuf_diffuser_thin" is the thin one in the last two pictures that only covers the LEDs, but still lets them reflect on the case. Clips into place.

"Asus_X570tuf_diffuser_thick" has the same "clip" as the thin one for more support if needed. Should be standard standoff height so it fits snuggly between the motherboard and case.

"Asus_X570tuf_diffuser_thick_noclip" is shown in the first two pictures. Just has a small edge that works as a stopper so it doesn't slide too far in. This makes it look like there is nothing there looking at the board from the side panel.

They are all 70mm long.

 

Notes:

First two pictures are with gyroid infill at .12 resolution. Changing the infill will change the way the leds reflect.

In the last two pictures, I printed it with 0% infill at .24 resolution.

If you print it with white filament and 0% infill, it will still work as a diffuser and will show some light. If you print them in black or a dark color, it will block the leds. I printed a black thin one to test, and it worked nicely to have the leds just reflect on the case.
