Colorful's Unique Air+Liquid Cooling Solution Pictured

Colorful has always been at the forefront of VGA innovation. The company put itself on the map with some of the most over the top cooling and VRM solutions for graphics cards. The streak of innovation continues with a unique new air+liquid VGA cooling solution the company wants to deploy on many of its upcoming high-end graphics cards. Called the Colorful Watersprout, the cooler is an all-in-one liquid cooling solution in the truest sense. There are no coolant tubes sticking out of the card.

The coolant channels coming out of the pump+block assembly go straight to a compact rectangular radiator that's under the cooler shroud, and gets ventilated by the three fans. This radiator has surface area comparable to that of a standard 120 mm x 120 mm radiator. Further, the pump+block shares its cooling onto a secondary heatsink assembly which cools the VRM, memory, and the GPU. This secondary heatsink has its own aluminium fin-stack. If you want to use an external liquid cooling loop, Colorful equipped the card with fittings, too. So without having to take the card apart, you can fit it to your loop. The card takes up 3 slots in your system.

At this time, Colorful seems to be playing safe, and merely bundling the block with the card, so you could fit it yourself, just so it could get the bundle out on the shelves by May 27. In the near future (after NVIDIA has milked early adopters dry), Colorful could launch a "custom design" product (think of it as NVIDIA reference PCB with this block factory-fitted), which could likely lack the "Founders Edition" badge, and perhaps even be $100 cheaper.

Colorful to Become World's Second Biggest Graphics Card Vendor in 2015: Report

PRC-based Colorful, which started out as (and continues to be) a vendor of wacky, over-the-top GeForce GTX graphics cards, has surpassed industry stalwarts MSI, ASUS and Gigabyte, in terms of graphics cards shipped worldwide this year, according to industry numbers published by DigiTimes. The report notes that Colorful could become the second largest graphics card maker in terms of shipments by the end of the year, next only to Palit (the current leader in terms of shipments).

Colorful has been clocking an average of 500,000 graphics cards shipped per month, and is projected to have shipped over 5 million cards in 2015. The company has currently outsold ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte, and ZOTAC, all of which are multinationals. Colorful has developed a strong brand-image in the Greater China region, particularly in the mainland. With a brand portfolio that includes Galaxy, Gainward, Point of View, and its own namesake, Palit is the biggest graphics card manufacturer by volume. Colorful's motherboard business is accelerating at a similar rate, and the report notes that the company could become "a very big threat" to ASUS and Gigabyte.

Colorful Launches GeForce GTX 980 iGame Graphics Card

Colorful launched its flagship GeForce GTX 980 based graphics card, the GTX 980 iGame. It should come as no surprise to anyone following the over-the-top engineering from this company, that the GTX 980 iGame comes with one of the meatiest cooling solutions, and one of the most muscular VRM solutions, a GTX 980 ever shipped with. The GTX 980 iGame ships with a non-reference design PCB by Colorful, which features pure silver traces, a gargantuan 14-phase VRM that draws power from two 8-pin PCIe power inputs, server-grade tantalum capacitors, high-grade DPAK MOSFETs, and high-current solid-chokes (which don't 'whine' under load).

Colorful GTX 980 iGame ships with dual-BIOS, the first one runs the card at 1127 MHz core, 1216 MHz GPU Boost, and 7.00 GHz memory. The second BIOS drives clocks up to 1178 MHz core, 1279 MHz GPU Boost, and 7.01 GHz memory. The two BIOSes can be toggled with a push-type switch. As always the factory-overclock isn't intended to make the most of the VRM and cooling, because that's what Colorful expects enthusiasts to have fun with. Moving on to the cooling solution, and you get a massive triple-slot compound aluminium fin-stack heatsink, which features three 100 mm fans. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.2, one HDMI 2.0, and one dual-link DVI. A solid metal back-plate with a dotted-mesh pattern dons the back. Colorful began shipping the card to select markets in APAC and EMEA regions. The company plans to launch an even more over-the-top card based on this PCB, called the GTX 980 iGame Kudan, later this month; and the GTX 970 iGame, which is essentially this card with a GTX 970 chip.
