Review on Enhanced GPU Cooling with NZXT Kraken G12 - Compatible πŸ’¨ with AMD and NVIDIA GPUs - Active VRM Cooling - White by David Turner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent fit for my non-reference GTX 1080

I have a Gigabyte GTX 1080 that I pulled from my Aorus gaming console (eGPU). Due to the design of the game console, the circuit board differs from the normal design. However, the Kraken G12 fit like it was made specifically for my GPU. I've paired it with a Corsair Hydro Series H55 AIO and since I've been using water cooling on my graphics card, the temperature on the chip never rose above 55C. However, my VRM lacks active cooling as the board is smaller than usual. and so the VRM temperatures didn't improve as much as the actual graphics chip. However, I'm still very happy with this setup and it works great with a much smaller spacing.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Very expensive
