Hi!
I own one gtx 770 superclocked from EVGA (ACX version).
Recently, with the new precision x 15 software, that allows me to raise the cards voltage, i have been doing some OC. By the moment, i can get about 1290mhz on the clock (boost) with 1.250v and the temps are like 74-78ºc.
When i tried to go up for the 1330mhz on the core clock, i had a few ¨sparking screens¨ when testing on 3DMark, so i tried to raise a little more the voltage to 1.275v (just for testing), but that didnt solve the problem.

My question (finally) is: I saw the new NZXT kraken g10 Water cooling mount for graphics card, that is compatible with some cpu watercooling kits, and the price its about 100 euros (like 130 bucks) for the g10 mount (30$) and the water cooling kit (60-90$) and temps get like 27ºc Idle and 50ºc Load.
So, with that temps, i wont have any problem with voltage when OCing (about heat) ?
The maximum voltage for my card its 1.3v (i dont know if it is excessive/harmful)

Also, id like to know if anyone can explain me why even when i raise the voltage to 1.275v i cant go with 1315-1330mhz on core clock

Thanks !

:D

What case do you own?

Some have high temps on the vrm with the g10, but on a gtx 770 that should be fine.
Of course a full custom GPU loop will cost far more (mine was 350€ in Germany) but also has even better performance and also expandability

By what ive heard, that can be solved with VRM heatsinks and the fan that comes with the G10 should cool them fine.
