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 -

Almost perfect
Notice to potential R9 290X "MSI GAMING Edition" owners: The assembly is simply impossible if you don't get out the drill to bring the holes of the AMD bracket closer together! Indeed, there is a difference of one to two millimetres between the holes on the CG and the holes in the bracket. After a crazy tightening of the buttocks and a lot of precautions, it passes.
Coupled with an NZXT Kraken X42, for a total of about 160 euros. In terms of performance, it's really worth it:
No gain in FPS (normal, the amount of memory on the card will not move with a watercooling...) but on the other hand, I went from 96 degrees constant in game (yes, yes) to no more than 50 degrees at full load! Just a huge gain.
As for the noise level, my PC is on the floor, but it's still much lower than a factory fan.
Before buying, ask yourself the question of how to fix the AIO ventirad you want to use with this adapter because you may have bad surprises if you can't fix it on your case!
So, in summary, this is a good product that is really worth waiting for the release of the next big CG of 2018!Review automatically translated
