Excellent
Coupled with a corsair H75 on an ASUS geforce 1070.
From 85° at full power I went down to 42°.
The assembly is very simple and quite easy to do, just don't attach the pipes before mounting the kit on the graphics card otherwise you might be a little annoyed to make the toilet fit when you couple the assembly on the graphics card.
If you ever use a support for your card because of its weight, you can remove it.
The graphics card with this kit is so light that the support is no longer necessary.Review automatically translated -

Very useful
Very useful product when you don't want to spend a lot of money on custom watercooling. On average I lost a dozen degrees on my GTX 1080Ti. I coupled it with a H75 from Corsair.

Great!
I am now using the Kraken G12 to watercool one of my two GTX1080 in SLI. Indeed, both cards are in 0 slot configuration, which means that there is no free space between the two cards.
The top card therefore tended to get very hot (94°C at the most) and the fans were always on full blast. So I chose to watercool this card.
Before purchasing I contacted NZXT to find out which AIOs would fit in the small space allowed by the 0 slot, to which they replied that their previous generation was compatible (Kraken x31, x41, x61).
So I ordered the Kraken x61 from another site as LDLC no longer sells it.
Once everything is installed, it fits, but it's pretty tight, even with a big case.
On the other hand the performance is nothing like air cooling! After a 3DMark Firestrike, the temperature of the watercooled GPU is 44°C while the "original" GPU goes up to 66°C. I was able to raise my score thanks to the GPU boost which benefits from the low temperatures.
To sum up, a very good product, nothing to complain about! I recommend it!Review automatically translated
