I'm interested in jumping on a Kraken G10 to cool my 780 Ti as I want to do some overclocking, and is it stands my temps are pretty high on air, however once Pascal hits the market I'll probably end up upgrading. The only issue I can see is whether the G10 will fit a future card like Pascal...

So for gaming purposes (Witcher 3 specifically) I discovered that if I added 3200x1800 (16:9 aspect ratio) as a custom resolution in the Nvidia control panel I could achieve my desired framerate. The problem, though, is that there is a black border around the screen when I switch to 3200x1800...

But let's say i did have adequate cooling, pushing the vcore above 1.4v will significantly degrade the chip, wouldn't it? I can make it sit stable at 1.425v, but that'll kill my chip fast.... How long do you think the lifespan would be (just a wild guess) at 1.425v? EDIT: And DAMN you've got...

I need your help! Again! I am now familiar with the very basics of overclocking (vcore, multiplier, temps, stability, etc...) I've got a 4670K and a custom water loop. My CPU at 4.8Ghz (1.275v-1.3v) seems stable. And in AIDA64 the temperatures remain in the 60s (ºC), rarely going past 70. I...

I've got my 4670K to 4.6 ghz at 1.23v and it's perfectly stable, but the temps eventually sit above 70ºC after only 10 minutes of prime95. Based on my limited knowledge of watercooling and overclocking, those temps are disgustingly high for a custom water loop. The Vcore doesn't seem too high...
