EVGA's GTX 400 Waterblock Performs very well

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/02/2010 01:45 AM | source: | 0 comment(s)

It seems that cooling is everything, as you guys know eVGA was one of the first to reveal water-cooled GTX 400 models last week then GTX 470/480 launched, with the Hydro Copper waterblock based products.

The Hydro Copper is composed of a C110 Copper baseplate, and Integrated 0.6mm thin pin matrix for optimal thermal transfer, extra high-flow designed internals and barbs and cools not just the GPU, but also the VREG and memory.

eVGA now has shown off some temperature results that look nothing short of amazing. Though eVGA has not disclosed what kind of H2O setup they actually used.

GTX 470
Load Heatsink: 83c
Load Waterblock: 38c

GTX 480
Load Heatsink: 95c
Load Waterblock: 49c

It should probably be noted that the Hydro Copepr FTW models reached these temperatures while being factory overclocked. The GTX 480 has the GPU, shaders and memory clocked at 750MHz, 1,500MHz and 3,800MHz respectively, whereas the GTX 470 runs at 650/1300/3402 MHz. In the end, the only drawback that these cards have is their higher prices, namely $650 and $500, respectively.
