Sapphire R9 270X Toxic Vs NZXT Kraken Cooling Review

A Closer Look
The GPU bracket is pretty straight forward in terms of design; the good thing about a simple design is that there are less things to go wrong.
The thick cut metal frame of the bracket is finished with thick white paint that gives it a premium look and feel.
The cut-out on the left is for mounting the water cooling pump, while the fan on the left is to help cool the cards VRM.
While I haven’t mounted the cooler just yet, I thought I would mount the back plate and screws to show you how the two fit together; both the back plate and the bracket have universal screw holes to help them fit a wide range of AMD and Nvidia graphics cards.
Here you can see the thumb screws and rubber washers, as well as the protective foam padding on the back plate.
