Think I will try and see if a 240 fractal design will fit the kraken G12 and see what it’s like- day can always put the original cooler back on I suppose while I look at the Phoenix option
They can if they place "void if removed" stickers over the screws.
I do not see why you could do half the job trying to fit a Kraken G12. Someone else tried it on the 2080Ti without much success given high idle temps and 100% fan speeds.
After all a Kragen G12 + X52 will set you back £140 and the performance won't be the same as full block. Even the single 140mm MLC + waterblock would do better job, however the 140mm is more expensive even than the 280mm one!!!!!!!!

no, they can't.
Good luck in court trying to tell the judge that you ignored the warranty void stickers and now want to claim.
You will get laughed out of court with a big bill for cost and still have no warranty on the card.
Given that it can't legally be inforced I'm not sure what you are going on about.

There are a few variable for this, but I was talking to a guy who used the g12 with an x52 on his 2080ti - he also put copper heatsinks onto the memory, vrm and mosfets, he did find the temps dropped compared to the stock cooler, but he found he could not overclock the memory the card would crash right away.
He then decided to throw that away and get a block and put the card on a loop, the card then overclocked another 100mhz higher than the g12 + x52 AND he now found he could push +800mhz on the memory where as before +100mhz would make it crash
I don't know if perhaps his installation of the AIO wasn't good, but at least in his experience it appears the G12 + x52 resulted in a core not overclocking as well as it could and potentially memory modules overheating as well - you'll notice that in the AIO 2080ti cards, like the kingpin I recently saw a teardown of, they have a metal brace that makes contact between the memory and AIO block so that the core and memory both get direct contact. But doing your own AIO means the memory is exposed and best you can do is attach a small heatsink to it
I have a plait rtx 2080ti that has failed and have been running on a g12. This has failed and palit are refusing to take it back as I invalidated the warranty according to them by removing the red sticker of the screw as it’s the intentional symbol for do not proceed!! Joke but they really aren’t budging, going to the credit card company now. So I am afraid Ross you are incorrect, palit do not allow the removal of the stock cooler but EVGA do for example.Given that it can't legally be inforced I'm not sure what you are going on about.
