Inno3D Unveils Black Freezer Series Water-Blocks for GeForce 400 Series

Inno3D is ready with a line of water blocks for GeForce 400 Series graphics cards, under the Inno3D Black Freezer series. The Inno3D Black Freezer VG-NGTX480 and VG-NGTX470. While Inno3D didn't share any more details about these, we can tell that the blocks are full-coverage, providing cooling to all vital components. The block is made of nickel/nickel-plated copper, with acrylic top (with a foil covering the top-side). Inno3D may sell these blocks individually, and/or release GeForce GTX 480 and GTX 470 graphics cards with these blocks factory-fitted.

There's nothing black apart from the letters to warrant such a name.

Refers to the fact that the block will be black in colour by the time GTX480 is done with it.

2 240x120 radiators for each card should do the trick

I think Inno3D will pre-fit these, as it clearly looks like the block itself is from Bitspower.
