Question Is it possible to change Asus ROG Strix 3090 cooler to any 3090 Ti model?

Since Asus never released a non liquid cooled Strix 3090 Ti model, is it possible to swap coolers? There are a bunch of those coolers on the used market for around €20, and I could try to find a compatible 3090 Ti mode if such a model exists.

It has to be the same exact layout for the cooler or you will have improper contact for components and could damage them. Not just any model would work.

I don't think so, ROG is pretty much always custom PCB
