Kraken G10 Compatibility

[B1NARY]

Hey guys,

 

I'd like to know if the kraken G10 is compatible with a GTX 780 DirectCU II. I already checked the NZXT website, and it said that it works with reference PCB but I guess that the Direct CU II design isn't reference. 

 

So, any info on that ? I couldn't find anything...

 

Thanks in advance

It doesn't matter if the cooler is reference what matters is if Asus use the same pcb design as nvidia originally designed. ill google it

Yeah I know that the cooler doesn't matter, I meant the PCB ^^ Thanks for the help tho.

I don't think it does this is what it says on their website: "ASUS GeForce® GTX 780 DirectCU II graphics cards feature an ASUS-designed PCB"

The 780 DCU II uses a non-reference PCB.

I've checked with pictures of the PCBs :

 

Reference GTX 780 : 

 

 

DirectCU II PCB : 

 

 

I think that the center screw holes are at the same place, or am I wrong ?

 

EDIT : Found a forum post of someone with a G10  on a Asus GTX 780 Ti Direct CU II card, aren't the Ti and non Ti version the same ? Or at least regarding the screw holes location ?

You can use the G10 on this card.  Many people do it.  Check the OCN G10 Owner's Club if you want further assistance.
