Asus strix cooler on a 980 Ti

[sof006]

Hey guys. So this might sound like a dumb question and the answer will probably be a resounding no but I can't find an answer on Google.

 

I have a GTX 980 (non Ti) Asus Strix.

 

The reference 980 Ti cooler... is it possible to fit the Asus strix cooler to the 980 Ti board? Looking at where the cooler screws onto the board it appears to be the same distance for the screws (looking at images online) however I could be wrong. Just looking for a second opinion. It doesn't bother me if its not possible, would be cool if I could though.

No, the strix ones in particular do not fit on reference cards, as they have a different layout

It wouldn't work, but you already added it in your sig lol

Thats all I need to know. Thanks

 

In the process of getting the 980 Ti and selling the 980 that I currently own. Leaf blower design will probably be better for my case anyway, will draw out some heat considering I have now replaced my water cooler with a standard air heatsink.
