Some of them you can. This one, you can't.

I don't see the reason you'd want to anyway, at that point you might as well just get a custom loop.

The radiator is able to be unscrewed, and I would like to replace the radiator for overall better case cooling. A custom loop is too much time, effort, and money. This card has the best aesthetics to me in comparison to other liquid cooled 1080 ti's, so I would like to stick with this card.

The temp decrease imo is not worth the effort or money. Unless you happen to have one of those AIO units laying around from an old project or something.
