NZXT Kraken G10 and Corsair H60 better than MSI twin forza?

[Devronicthetonicman]

Hey guys,

I'm wondering if I instal a NZXT Kraken G10 and a Corsair H60 water cooler to my Geforce GTX 770 would it be more cool efficient than the MSI Twin forza that attaches to the Geforce GTX 770. This is the card that I am talking about.

So if I replace that with the NZXT Kraken G10 and Corsair H60 will it be cooled more so?

Thanks for any comments and or suggestions you guys might have

Cheers!

I want to use my h50............. but can't get a G10............. when did you get yours?

and yes, everything I have seen the temps get dropped dramatically.

Unlikely, cooling is all about surface area, a piddly inch thick 120mm rad is no good, had a H60 was totally useless.

i HAD TROUBLES TOO UNTIL DISCONNECTING FROM THE CPU HEADER AND USING A FAN HEADER. sorry for the caps......... and this is a gpu not cpu....... yes, I know.

Actually I haven't purchased one yet but NZXT is saying they will sell more at the end January so you might have to wait till then. With the kraken G10 it has a fan so the surface area is more cooled with it installed. Even with a H60 I can imagine it would be better than MSI's twin forza's cooling fans...BUT I dont know yet cause I dont own one! ha! So that's why I'm asking you guys

Oh wait sorry i'm going to edit this because you can just order it from their website!

I was there earlier still couldn't get one.......... lucky.

 

[Devronicthetonicman]

Why can't you get one? It's literally saying right now it's in stock! Check it out now! quickly before they run out! haha Also Swifty I would like to agree with you that it would cool better than the MSI twin forza fans...

I SAID........... i was there *earlier* and you couldn't get one................................

Didn't think the new H60 could mount to a kraken g10 thought only asetek coolers were supported.

Yeah the H60 isnt in the specifications, its a cool IT based design, like the H100i and H100. The only ones that work are asetek based coolers or the locking mechanism ones with the circle "block". I have a H55 myself cooling an R9 290 and they are only compatible with the asetek versions such as the H55, H75, H105, H110, H90 and other brand asetek coolers such as the nzxt krakens. And yes the temps will likely be better but unless you get vrm heatsinks it may not be worth it to get extra overclocking capacity. I personally have it to keep my 290 cool enough and be quiet due to only running with a single type of fan throughout the whole system except for the psu fan and gpu bracket fan.
