Overall, the H2O version was a very strong performer. We were excited to see that, at default clock speeds, it could beat the air cooled 7800 GT OC in more than a few games. The extra performance allowed us to raise image quality settings improving the gaming experience. In fact, with this video card overclocked, we were literally at GeForce 7800 GTX performance levels. This video card has a lot of overclocking potential thanks to water cooling.
