EVGA unveils a new waterblock called Hydro Copper 16 for the GeForce GTX 280 and 260 graphics cards. The graphics card vendor claims this waterblock reduces temperatures by as much as 50°C during max load.
Featuring a sleek-modern look and a full copper design, EVGA continues to incorporate only the best attributes that make up the Hydro Copper Waterblock Series. An extreme high flow path design with a unique, integrated pressure point allows the Hydro Copper 16 Waterblock to keep your GTX 280 or GTX 260 as cool as can be while under even the heaviest of graphical loads.

Exclusive only to EVGA, patent pending E-flow technology aids in dispersing heat from GTX 280 and GTX 260 graphics processing unit (GPU). EVGA also provides full coverage with the addition of a heat-piped back plate that links with the Hydro Copper 16 Waterblock using patent pending "Co-op" technology.


EVGA also offers a GeForce GTX 280 HC bundle for $879.99.

  • Supports 2-Way and 3-Way SLI (3-Way SLI kit will be included with every purchase of 3 cards/waterblocks)
