GTX 295 and 285 with CoolIt cooler

Water loving guys at BFG Tech have prepared two new cards that have been developed together with CoolIT Systems in order to give those hot GTX 295 and GTX 285 beasts some cooling during the summer. Both cards are factory overclocked and cooled by maintenance free self-contained liquid cooling solution.

Compared to the regular reference coolers, these babies are up to 30°C cooler and we are quite positive that CoolIT's water cooler does a great job in keeping the noise down as well.

The BFG GTX 295 H20C 1792MB ThermoIntelligence Advance Cooling Solution branded card works at 675MHz for both GPUs, has 480 stream processors with a shader clock set at 1458MHz. The card has a 1792MB of GDDR3 memory overclocked to impressive 2214MHz which gives it a total of 248GB/s of memory bandwidth.

The other one is branded as the BFG GTX 285 H2O+ 1GB ThermoIntelligence Advanced Cooling Solution which works at 691MHz for the GPU, 1566MHz for 240 Stream processors, and comes with 1GB of GDDR3 clocked at an even higher 2592MHz. This means that this card has 166GB/s of memory bandwidth.

The GTX 295 H2OC card will be available on August 5th while those that want the GTX 285 H2O+ will be available as of August 12th. Unfortunately, we will have to wait until then to check out the price of these beasts but we don't expect them to be on the cheap side.
