Hello all,

I am going to build my very first PC soon and I was browsing NZXT's page for my CPU cooler (x61) and stumbled across the G10. I scrolled down to the compatibility of GPUs and saw the gtx 970 I have the GTX 970 mini by Asus (https://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-gtx970dcmoc4gd5) and I was wondering that if my GPU is compatible with the G10. If not, I am looking forward to water cool my gpu with a block of some sort that the radiator is 120mm and direct ( what NZXT wanted with the G10 )

Thanks in advance!

The mini version won't work, the bracket nearly covers all of my GPU (I have it)

Given you only have a 970 and the mini version of it, I don't think you need to watercool it, as it will only give you -10 degrees F (I only needed it because I messed up the paint while trying to mod my gpu :P

 

Without the G10 or a custom watercooling loop, you won't be able to watercool your GPU, sorry to say

The fan of the G10 won't cool the VRM, since the pcb of that card is shorter than reference if i recall correctly
