Just came across this thing and I don't know what the fuck to think of it.
I'm pretty sure that card is meant to have watercooling on it.
Oh shit it is. Never mind guys, my terrible mistake.
I was expecting to see something with a heatsink the size my head.
I was dissapointed
it's just a water cooling ready version.
What if i pump air trough it.

I don't even think that would be enough.
I find this is ridiculous.
$200 for a pre-fitted watercooling block? No thanks.
someone will buy it.

I have a big head :smug:

Depends on what "head" you're talking about.

You'd have to pump quite a lot of air through it for it to cool down fast enough.

I lol'd.
Wait till someone buys this then bitches about it burning out.

Wouldn't the GTX 480 boils the coolant and evaporates it instantly??? :smug:

Idiots can't tell what a sarcasm is...

you're thinking in a very strictly confined box.
a GOOD gpu water block, which EVGA's always are, run for about $100 at the least. then you have to void the warranty, so if you fuck it up, it's another 500 or so for a new card, if this thing dies on you, it's not (entirely) your fault.
that's what you're paying for, a pre-fitted watercooling block and a valid warranty.
I rated you boxes and laughed.
