MSI’s N580GTX HydroGen/OC Card Available on Pre-order

Overclocked out-of-the-box and equipped with an all-copper water-block ready to be attached to a liquid cooling system... this card has some oomph.

I would have preferred them to use a full cover waterblock, but it's nice that it's a single slot like the EVGA GTX580 Hydro Copper

EDIT: Fail by mean it appears to be a dual slot card.

I would prefer the EVGA cards just because they look better.

If it was a full cover waterblock, this would have been great since I do prefer MSI and their Military Class components (no coil whine), while looking just as good as the EVGA. But from a functionality point of view, this water block is more than adequate.

HOWEVER this is more than 100 euro cheaper than the EVGA FTW (€689,90), in fact at this price, I think it might even be cheaper than buying a 580 and a waterblock, so you save money and hassle

Hopefully it's also a cherry picked GPU, than this would be such a great value card.

Bravo MSI!

The Evga Hydro Copper looks SO much better than this, I agree.
