BFG 7800 Series with water block and Arctic Silver straight from the factory. No more worries about voiding the warrantee by ripping off the heatsink. No more hairdryers and screwdrivers! I love this concept.

BFG wrote:BFG GeForceâ?¢ 7800 GT OCâ?¢ with Water Block. Factory overclocked to 470MHz / 1050MHz (vs. 400MHz / 1000MHz standard), this built-to-order card will feature a water block instead of a GPU fan for those wanting to purchase or who may already have an existing liquid-cooled PC system. BFG will hand-build your card using Arctic Silver 5 Premium Thermal Compound. Easily hooked up to any existing 1/4" tubing system or to 3/8" tubes with the included adapters, this card runs cool and silent. BFG Tech is proud to offer their true lifetime warranty on this graphics card.

I think I must have one of these. Or maybe two.

Wow, thats fuckin cool. Pity it doesnt cool the memory chips also tho.

Just goes to show you that watercooling is inching closer to the mainstream.

IIRC, one company did this with the Geforce3 line too. Even included the pump. If you bought one without it, you could send it back and have it installed for you.

BFG had the 6800 Ultra WC'ed as well. Highly overpriced tho..

Heh, maybe overpriced, but worth it IMHO. If I ever need warranty work done, it's pull it and ship it instead of facking around trying to bring it back to stock. I'd be willing to pay $30-40 bucks for that luxury.
