(The Tide Water is an all-in-one liquid cooler that slips into a PCI slot and dissipates heat from the graphics card via a water block and a fan that blows air out of the case.)The folks at Asus apparently thought this was a pretty good idea, because they've decided to introduce a GeForce 8800 GTX graphics card that seems to include an unmodified Tide Water module. The card, which Asus baptized EN8800GTX AquaTank/HTDP/768M, is factory "overclocked" from the stock 575MHz core clock, 1350MHz shader clock, and 900MHz memory clock to an impressive 630MHz/1458MHz/1030MHz.Despite these higher-than-stock speeds, Asus says the card's liquid cooler helps it run 12°C cooler than generic GeForce 8800 GTX models. The EN8800GTX AquaTank/HTDP/768M takes up four PCI/PCI Express slots, though, so enthusiasts might have to sacrifice their sound card or other adapters for the privilege.</blockquote>
