Changing tri-x cooler

[pstroy]

Just wanted your guys opinion. I'm considering swapping out my Sapphire tri-x cooler for a kraken g10+heatsinks. I want to make the thing quiter and if possible cooler. So what do you guys think yes or no?

I don't know if it'll be quieter, but it'll be cooler alright. Swapping an air cooler for a water cooler is good if you want to get higher performance; however, I think that it might be considerably quieter since it'll probably be 200% cooler. The only problem might be the fact that you can't really control the fan and pump speed automatically, so they'll constantly run at the temps you predefined and not according to those of the GPU.

Well I was hoping to get an adapter to attach the fan to the Gpu so I can create a fan curve for it... In theory anyways but thank you for your answer, I needed that bit of reassurance that it was worth doing lol.
