So I have a bit of a problem. I recently bought a Alphacool Eiswolf 120 to liquid cool my Asus Turbo card. Yesterday I installed it and initially everything looked OK but when I try to run Cinebench the temperatures of the card are well under control but I get only about 1/2 of my original OpenGL score compared to the stock cooler. Could this be because I no longer have a fan connected to the GPU header as my radiator fan is powered through motherboard as is the pump? I have jet to try reinstalling the stock cooler to see if I damaged something but as the GPU seems to be booting OK I cannot think what could have I damaged? I also tried running a game and initially it looked OK as well but then the frame rate started to drop to 30-40 range and this is definitely not normal compared to what I was seeing with stock cooler. Jet again temperature of the GPU looks OK. Just looking for any advice to troubleshoot as I am quite noob in the liquid cooling world.
 
What do you have cooling the VRAM and power section of the card?
