Question 1

Does this bracket fit a GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2060 WINDFORCE?

Accepted Answer

Also, to clarify. I myself have mounted the g12 to a 2060. The placement of the spacer pads is tricky though..

Question 2

Will this work with my Corsair H100i? its not on the supported list but could we mod it maybe a little bit for it to work?

Accepted Answer

I doubt it will work with the h100i v1.  This bracket is designed to work with the round Asetek pumps.  The h100i v1 is the square style pump I do believe.  If you have the H100i v2 I've heard of people getting it to work, but usually with some level of difficulty.

Question 3

Does this work with the NZXT M22?

Accepted Answer

If you look at the M22 on the NZXT site it mentioned that it is not compatible. Also if you look at the NZXT site for the G12 you can see whats compatible

Compatibility - AIO Liquid Coolers
NZXT Kraken:  X72, X62, X52, X42, X61, X41, X31, X60, X40
Corsair: H105, H110, H90, H75 (CW-9060015-WW only), H55, H50 (CW-906006-WW only)
Thermaltake: Water 3.0 Riing RGB 360, 280, 240, Red 280, 140, Water 3.0 Ultimate, Extreme S, Extreme, Pro, Performer Water 2.0 Extreme, Pro, Performer
Antec: KUHLER H2O 920V4, 620V4, 920, 620
Zalman: LQ-320, LQ-315, LQ-310

Question 4

Would this be compatible with the new 20 series nvidia cards?

Accepted Answer

I would ask NZXT directly,. The updated version of this is comptabile with the 2080 and up with the 'A' bracket 0shipped with the product I guess); but you can check if the screw spacing for the heatsink on the new 20 series' reference PCB is the same as the reference PCB from the 10 series cards. If it is the same, and the screw spacing is the same, then it'll be compatible.

Question 5

Do you know if fully installed (assuming the pump fit in 2 slot). This kit itself does fit in a 2 slot space? I have a graphics card immediately below this one, and there is space between. Want to make sure If I made the top card water cooling, I can still install it.

Accepted Answer

It should fit because the bracket isnt bigger than a video card. So if 2 cards fit now the G12 should fit. Dimensions = 201 x 113 x 32 mm

Question 6

Will this fit an EVGA GTX 1080TI FTW3?

Accepted Answer

According to the manufacturer website it does. I used one on an RX480. If it's quite you're looking for, I recommend getting something with a larger radiator and and dual fans, Corsair h105, if you're looking at an AIO. But in all honesty, I don't really recommend these, look for an option to liquid cool everything.

Question 7

How much Space is between the Fan/Bracket location and the actual Board, is there space between the fan and the components on the board or is it directly on it? would I be able to fit a couple small 20mmx20mmx6mm radiating heatsync in loo of not just having it directly blowing the parts to assist in their cooling?

Accepted Answer

For my EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Gaming, there's at least 12 mm clearance between the bracket surface and the GTX 1080 daughtercard itself.  Note: you'll most likely use NZXT's own Kraken X42 for best overall compatibility and cooling.  I tried using a Corsair's own H75, yet had to fall back to a first generation Corsair H55 once I found one as the more recent Corsair AIO didn't use a sprocket type retainer.

In all, the H55 more than did the job for me as I shot for the sweet spot balance with consistant high clocks between 1803 - 1840 MHz  and relative maximum heat in the 55-65° C range wihtout too much voltage.  That may seem weak, but as I'm only gaming in 1080p to begin with, it's more than insaniac enough to rip through DX11 games at over 77 -147 fps.

If you're aiming for the heat management through lower voltage approach as I am, you probably won't need VRM or memory heat sinks at all - simply remember to insure both the AIO pump and the bracket fan are cranked to their maximum RPMs at all times.

If you're going for extreme performance short of liquid nitrogen cooling (just... don't to the NO2 option willy nilly, folks... pros only), be sure your only using VRM and memory heatsinks which are in the 10mmX10mmX10mm or 10mmX15mmX10mm sizes.

Bottom line: you probably don't have to use VRM and VGA memory coolers with an AIO unless you plan to go all out and risk burning up your video card to the performance idols.

Question 8

will this work with the Radeon RX 580 or should I just buy the Kraken G10 Bracket?

Accepted Answer

Based upon the specifications for both the G12 and G10, it seems only the G10 has stated compatibility with the RX580... I wouldn't take my chances on the G12 working for you in this case. Go with the bracket that fits your GPU's PCB mounting holes.

Question 9

Will a Kraken x53 AIO work with this system?

Accepted Answer

yes it will work with that AIO. the NZXT website states that it Supports the latest Kraken Z63/Z73/X53/X63/X73/X42/X52/X62/72.

Question 10

Is the Hydro Series™ H55 Quiet cooler will this good for 1060 gigabyte g1 gaming video card?

Accepted Answer

I have installed it on ASUS 1080 Ti 11GB and it works just well. I will recommend this product to anyone. I think it will be good for Gygabite 1060 G1 Gaming.
