BFG Tech Announces Limited Edition Self-Contained Liquid Cooled Graphics Cards
BFG Technologies Inc., the leading North American and European supplier of advanced NVIDIA-based 3D graphics cards, power supplies, and the Phobos High-Performance Gaming/Home Theater System, announced today the BFG GeForce GTX 285 H2O+ and GeForce GTX 295 H2OC graphics cards with ThermoIntelligence Advanced Cooling Solutions-saving customers time and money by providing a high performance graphics card plus a fully assembled, self-contained liquid cooling solution right out of the box.
The BFG GeForce GTX 285 H2O+ and GeForce GTX 295 H2OC ThermoIntelligence Advanced Cooling Solutions are maintenance-free, self-contained liquid cooling units attached to enthusiast-grade BFG Tech graphics cards that easily install into most systems right out of the box and never need refilling or additional components. These unique solutions feature a top of the line BFG Tech graphics card plus a high-performance cooling loop designed by CoolIT Systems that pushes coolant across the GPU and exhausts heat directly outside of the system chassis. Three different system speed settings-Auto, Quiet, and Maximum-give total control over acoustics and performance."We're very excited to be the first company to bring this type of professional grade advanced cooling solution to PC enthusiasts", said John Malley, senior director of marketing for BFG Technologies. "The BFG ThermoIntelligence Advanced Cooling Solutions provide customers a way to get all of the benefits of liquid cooling their graphics cards right out of the box, without having to install a separate liquid cooling system that requires assembly, filling, and challenging maintenance from time to time."
Impressive Heat Dissipation
Both ThermoIntelligence Advanced Cooling Solutions keep the graphics card running up to 30 degrees Celsius cooler under load as compared to standard air cooled models, which ensures reliable operation and longevity.
Custom Cold Plates
Both solutions feature highly efficient, custom cold plates that direct cooling liquid over vital parts of each specific graphics card to effectively absorb heat.
BFG GeForce GTX 295 H2OC with ThermoIntelligence Advanced Cooling Solution
The BFG GeForce GTX 295 H2OC graphics card with ThermoIntelligence Advanced Cooling Solution will be available in limited quantities starting August 5, 2009 at NewEgg.com in the U.S., and at leading online retailers in the U.K.
The BFG GeForce GTX 285 H2O+ will be available in limited quantities starting August 12, 2009 at NewEgg.com in the U.S., and at leading online retailers in the U.K.

I want to see an ATI version ASAP! Any prices Bta?
Is there any way of being able to purchase just the cooling itself? I dont really need a 285 or 295.
Does any other company sell coolers like this for video cards? I've sorta been out of the loop with this stuff for the past few months...
In THEORY anyone who buys one of these already ALSO has a TRUE120 - or something similar...
Now what ? I hate to always be negative but can anyone here SERIOUSLY see anyone who buys a High-Performance Overclocker Video Card, running a Sock CPU cooler?
That came out quiet a while ago, also has a CPU cooler in it's loop. I can't remember where it was reviewed, but I think they ran a Q6600 under it at like 3.4ghz and it did just fine. Going to be a hard card to find though.
Still it's cool idea;)
But something like that most likely is going to be for people who don't know much about OC'ing and want easy WC, so it's a great buy for that.
Im gonna rob a bank first before I get that LOL
one sweet card (i think it taste like lollipop LOL)
Had a NICE one 12X24 CM - so it was just the right size for 2x12cm fans - ran them on 5v - was DEAD silent, and worked 10x better than any of these silly little commercial rad's.
