Hello!

I was wondering if it was possible to "replace" the AIO on my 980Ti Hybrid. I know the NZXT G12 exists, but wasn't sure if I needed that if I already had a "Hybrid" card. Would this be possible?
As the card is only getting older and the chances lower of me getting a new GPU **My second card caught fire :(**, I wanted to keep my temps as low as possible and get as much performance as I could out of this one. I was hoping to switch to a 360mm cooler. 
Any tips or recommendations on how I can go about this?

Thank you!

    Yeah, you’ll need it even if you have a hybrid card.

    It's probably possible to replace the AIO but not with a good job, especially because these AIOs are made especially for graphics cards in mind, its unlikely it would fit well unless you do get that NZXT kit. Also, another thing is that 360mm radiators don't yield much performance gain, maybe a few degrees at most; although I'm not an expert by any means on this.

    I thought to do the same as you, take in consideration that you would need some VRM heatsinks that are not included in the NZXT kit
