Question Will my 980ti work with a Kraken G12?

[DreadBelch]

Trying to add liquid cooling to my Gigabyte 980ti Windforce 3X (Amazon link). I've never modded a GPU.

My question is, can I attach a Kraken G12 or G10 bracket (link) to the GPU I linked? I can't tell if those two will play nice.

Thanks for any advice.

i7 6700k and Noctua NH-D15
Gigabyte Gaming 7 mobo
GSkill Trident Z DDR4 3000
Samsung 850 EVO
Fractal Design Define R5 case
EVGA Supernova G2 750W

Think I've found my answer on Reddit. The Kraken G12 would likely work since it uses the same Asetek gen5 pump, but evidently the danger of my 980TI's VRMs burning out from overclocking is a concern. Think I'm gonna hold off.

Here's the thread in case anyone's interested: Reddit link

I watch a video jayztwocents made a while back testing the g12 and the temps on the vrms were fine when overclocking. But i dont remember which card he tested with

Yeah, the video card's MOSFETs makes a big difference evidently. My Windforce 980ti doesn't have the nice ones or I'd take a stab at it.

Also as far as OC'ing goes, the guy from the Reddit link I posted pointed out that "Pascal cards (and more recent Turing cards) have strict power and voltage limits that cannot be removed which means the VRMs are almost always safe."

i think he tested with an evga 1080
