TUL Corporation, a leading manufacturer of AMD graphics cards, announces the world's first liquid cooling solution for the HD6970 series. The PowerColor Liquid Cooling Solution (LCS) HD6970 2GB GDDR5 is once again working with renowned cooling manufacturer EKwaterblocks to bring the ultimate cooling solution to the HD6970. The offering aims to provide extraordinary thermal performance to enhance overclocking ability while allowing optimum system stability.

The PowerColor LCS HD6970 has a full water block mounted on the card, fully covering the key components which can be dissipate the heat from the copper base design. This allows the reduction of GPU temperatures under 50°C even under full load. PowerColor packages a high-flow 3/8" and 1/2" fittings (barbs) to maximize water flow with captured o-rings to prevent leakage. Gamers can customize their own liquid cooling system using these two fittings.



"The coolest temperatures and the fastest performance is what we guarantee to add into the LCS HD6970 features," said Ted Chen, CEO of TUL Corporation. "With all the key features come with this latest solution, we believe all these benefits can make it the best solution ever for hardcore gamers and benchmark ethusiasts."

Compatible with all the latest features, the PowerColor LCS HD6970 has a factory overclocked setting at 925 MHz core and 1425 MHz memory, easily pushing the overclocking ability to maximize its performance. The card also comes equipped with Volterra's digital power solution, maximizes its transforming efficiency and delivers the best output quality through its high frequency feature, enabling the most efficient way to boost up gaming experience.

Yes indeed that is an EK block, nice to see that company making ties with the video card vendors.
 
OMG what an Overclock by MSI it sooooo






DISAPPOINTING
 
I really hate the fact that it is still 2 slots. One of the biggest reasons I started going with full cover blocks is for the conversion to single slot. Would've been nice if they moved the top DVI to a dongle or something along those lines.
 
Wonder what retail on this is.

there won't be single slot HD69XX series because there are huge ass DVi connector,

and i hope future card won't have it
 
Ditto, I dont want to see that pile o' DVIs either.
 
Looks awesome!:)

I too hate the fact that it's still dual slot though.
 
I'm tempted to sell my 470 w/ block and upgrade to this, as long as retail isn't ridiculously high.
 
yeah ati needs to switch newer rev pcb's to a dongle, wc blocks like this were originally made to use less space for more card availability with better temps

Yep. With it taking up 2 spaces, there is no point in going with a full cover block. Might as well go for the cheaper universal solution.
