is the G10 Kraken compatible with this MSI GTX 970 TwinFrozr Non Reference card?
(the compatibility checker on the NZXT doesnt seem to have a definite answer)

if its not compatible, then my follow up question is, is G10 Kraken compatible with the Reference Card MSI GTX 970?

Not compatible, the VRMs are on the left side. Most video cards that are compatible with the G10 are cards with vrms on the right side of gpu.



Mine with GTX 780 Ti,
