EVGA Unveils GTX Titan HydroCopper Signature Series Graphics Cards

Even as every other AIC partner is under strict directions not to modify GeForce GTX Titan board design, NVIDIA pet EVGA released pictures of its upcoming GTX Titan Signature SC HydroCopper graphics card (model: 06G-P4-2795-KR), the first GTX Titan with a full coverage water block pre-installed. Co-developed by Swiftech, EVGA's block uses nickel-plated copper as its primary material, with a secsi black shroud running the card's entire length. In addition to the 7.1 billion-transistor GPU, the block cools memory chips and VRM components on the obverse side of the PCB. The reverse side gets a back-plate. EVGA did not disclose clock speeds, but the SC (super-clocked) brand extension suggests it ships with a factory-overclock. EVGA didn't disclose its price, but we expect it to be around US $1,300.

lol... This is a bad 3D render...
What about taking a picture of the actual card?!
Bare minimum - some more polygons, fix the lighting, higher res textures.....

I am sure they could. The question is why not? I would guess that they don't have the chips stocked up or that they don't want to cut into the quadro profits.

Wow, I could build an entire system from scratch for less than 1.3k, and it would be more performance than this card could deliver.

What is that? nVidia's stock has gone down since the announcement and release of Titan? Across the board, various markets have been giving Tegra 4 more publicity than Titan in the last 2 days. Now what does that say about nVidia?

How about you back off a bit and cut him some slack? His written English gets the point across, no?

Maybe price will be under 1300$.
You don't need to pay 1300$, you can pay 1250$ and no warranty on watercooling.
But I think who have money to pay for Titan + Water block he have money to pay 70$ more maybe for full cover best looking and best performing water block on market.
Maybe they sell later and only waterblock. If block for 680 Classified is around 150$ maye for this they sell for 200-220$. It's early to say...
You can't buy Titan + waterblock for 1150$ no way. In any situation with all combination.
That would be Superclocked HydroCopper. And it's not 300$ more, its 50-70-100$ more if you decide to go on watercooling. Someone need to give warranty on watercooling because ASUS and GIGABYTE and MSI don' want to do that and that cost little.
And they will give in that package something else.

EK Full Cover Waterblock for $89.95 + $1000 for Titan = $1089.95.

Best looking and best performing?

Unless they changed something the HC blocks are by far the most restrictive GPU blocks you can buy on the market. You want THE best performance? Wait for Heatkiller/Aquacomputer blocks.

Well, look is something that concerns personal taste, but man if you think a huge chunk of POM with a cheap sticker looks good then...
