Cooler Better Graphics
Posted February 7th, 2007 by Marius Trusculescu
Asus presented us with a new solution for increasing the gaming capabilities of our computers with the new EN8800GTX Aqua Tank/HTDP/768M. Asus’s product promises better graphics performance without the usual increase in temperature and this is enough reason to search more into it.
At heart the new product is a Nvidia GeForce GF 8800 GTX GPU that is overclocked to 630 MHz (from 575 MHz) with the sole purpose of obtaining an increase in performance. The downsize of this would be an increase in the overall temperature of the hardware, but ins Asus’s device the extra heat from the overclocking is dissipated using the Aqua Tank water cooling compact solution that is both effective and it doesn’t uses much space.
To sum it up there is up to 11% increase in performance and a 12°C drop in temperature when comparing the new product with the standard GeForce 8800 GTX. Even if this might not seem much it could just be the edge you needed for delivering better graphics for the new demanding games.
