Shipping in black, white, and red (where's the green, NZXT?), the new G10 bracket is compatible with any modern video card using reference boards from nVidia and AMD. Using the same Asetek mounting mechanism as the Kraken X40 & X60 that we reviewed, the G10 is installed by removing the stock cooler from a reference board, mounting your separate CLC, then simply tightening some screws and mounting plates to the GPU. The VRM fan is pre-installed.
An aftermarket video card cooler will decrease thermals on the silicon, which in turn decreases noise emissions (from the stock fan attempting to keep up) and improves overall endurance of the GPU die.
The G10 will be available on Newegg shortly. See NZXT's page has further details.
