Hey man,

I have had some issues with overclocking cards with a G10 aswell, the secret is using a backplate with similar screw threads position and even adding small heat sinks around the card itself.

The following videos explain what this guy did with the G10, what heatsinks he used and even a working benchmark!

1) Part I
2) Part II

Keep in mind that he is showing what is gonna work on an ATI 290, if you have a different card do some research on what heatsinks to use and where it is needed!

Hope this helps.
