GeForce GTX 280 HC16 (Hydro Copper)

The backside is cooled as well as it has a massive heatsink mounted on top of it. I like that very much as all vendors focus at the frontside only. EVGA lables this a Co-op Backplate and obviously functions for better heat dissipation.

Right, we are going to focus at installation now. First have a look at that massive amount of copper used for the cooler. Respect, that block is going to cool wicked.

On the frontside I already screwed two fittings/barbs in secure. You can detach them again if you decide to go SLI leading outflow to the other cards.

Very clever, however, EVGA does not include an extra set of fittings .. FAIL. So if you go SLI, you'll need to hunt down some fittings to make that happen. They are regular sized fittings, but the BFG H2OC kit's for example have all that additional stuff included as extra.

The backside, we'll focus on the waterblock from here on. These are the two mounts for your water in and outflow. As you can see, pure copper all the way. The detail is quite intense.

Today a review the EVGA GeForce GTX 780 SC ACX edition. The Superclocked model comes with a nice factory tweak and that all new Sleeve bearing fan based ACX cooler.

We test the product with the hottest games like Metro: Last light, Battlefield 3, Sleeping Dogs, Far Cry 3, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Hitman Absolution and many more.

In this article we review the EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost SC edition review with that SC for superclocked.

We have another GeForce GTX 660 Ti review for you today as we'll put the GeForce GTX 660 Ti from EVGA to the test, it's their factory clocked version, the GeForce GTX 660 Ti SuperClocked (SC) version.So it isn't hard to understand that the factory overclocked GeForce 660 Ti SKUs will run fairly close to the GeForce GTX 670 (reference clocked) and maybe Let's have a peek.
