Photos - BFG GeForce GTX 295 H2O

On the next few pages we'll show you some photos. The images were taken at high resolution and then cropped and scaled down. The camera used was a Canon 450D 12 MegaPixel.

There's no retail review without a box shot here at Guru3D.com, this is what you can expect when you purchase the product.

BFG GeForce GTX 295 H2O review

Here we have the BFG GeForce GTX 295 H2O. The specifications are 100% similar to the NVIDIA reference design for sure. The card just looks completely different as the outer shell is missing, well that and that tiny little copper thingy in the middle...

BFG GeForce GTX 295 H2O review

Aah, proper bloke stuff. You can see the GTX 295 is a dual-slot based graphics card. It's needed due to the two PCBs used and obviously it needs proper cooling. The card is the same length as previous high-end cards and falls within ATX motherboard design.

I just realized what the card makes me think of, you know these cat's that have no hair... there you go. And no, I am not referring to something else, you pervert.

Let's focus a little more on the cooling block though. The card has two GPUs, each PCB has a GPU pointing inwards. Each GPU and all memory plus some voltage regulators are then covered by the colossal copper block in the middle. The copper block then needs two barbs and tubing, for an in and outflow of coolant. The weird thing is, the fact remains that the cooling block sits in-between the two PCBs, so it's not really revealing itself.
