BFG GTX 295 H2O at reference clocks
BFG is the first Nvidia partner that has officially announced its own water cooled GTX 295 card. We wrote before that Zotac and EVGA are also going to have similar cards, but apparently BFG was a bit faster. Unfortunately, the announced GTX 295 H20 works at reference clocks while the factory overclocked card with the same cooling solution will be available in March.
As noted, the BFG GTX 295 H20 works at reference clocks, so the GPU, or should we say GPUs are clocked at 576MHz and the 1,792MB (896MB per GPU) of memory is clocked at 1,998MHz. The card has 240 processor cores per GPU, or 480 in total, with a shader clock set at 1,242MHz.
BFG has included two standard removable fittings, each for 3/8" and 1/2" inner diameter tubing as well as two micro removable fittings for "space constrained" Nvidia SLI setup, two tubing clams for 5/8" and 3/4" outer diameter tubing and some other water cooling accessories.
Unlike the factory overclocked version which should come sometimes in March, this one should be available as of February 16th. Unfortunately the price is still a mystery, at least least until it starts to show its face around European and USA retailers/e-tailers.
