980TI reference cooler remove video?

[MrIceCremeLollipop]

Ive just got a 980TI reference, but its running very hot and I would like to change the thermal paste but I cant find any videos on how to take the cooler off, I know its fairly obvious but I'd rather have a video to follow.

Should be very similar to, if not the same as the Maxwell Titan (I forget if it's a Titan Black or just Titan or something else) considering they share waterblocks perfectly. Heck a 980 would probably be very similar. Not really any need for a video though, if you're putting on a waterblock it usually includes simple instructions. It's pretty much just take all the screws out, and very carefully pull the cooler off while watching for the fan/lighting cables, then unplug those and it should come free. If you're careful there's not really a way to damage the GPU, you'd have to force it hard enough to snap something.

Should be a Titan x maxwell, Kepler titans aren’t close. A million videos on that. Any video that shows a reference nvidia card will be more than enough info on how to do it. Jay has done it 10 times atleast. Every custom pc builder normally does it in detail atleast once, as that’s all it needs to be done.
