Would like to check anyone can recommend a reasonable AIO cooler for R9 290.. possibly with 'future proof' bracket i.e able to just change the bracket to support new GFX card... again if can support AMD & NVDIA would be good too

Was looking for NZXT G10..but not sure how this works...

Not many options you have there.

But seriously, it doesn't worth the effort and money to spend money on AIO and NZXT G10.

Sell your card and get RX480/GTX1060. Problem solved.

(Note1: I don't recommend R9 390/390x because they are R9 290)
(Note2: Palit GTX1060 is as low as MYR1099 now)

I know the 290 is hot but seems the idle temp is hovering around 60 degree which is odd as the nzxtcam benchmark show it should be way below 40 on idle

Not worth selling 290 now I guess that's why I want to invest on cooler that can be upgraded

how much can I Get it now u think?

NZXT bracket is about MYR150-160 (excluding postage).
Make sure you get a compatible AIO.

AIO is approx MYR200-300.
Try look for second-hand AIO @ garage sales.

So, total cost < MYR500 (including postage).

Make sure you have ramsinks on ramchips and VRM.

Good luck on your AIO project.
