What EVGA ACX 3.0 is being offered? The quoted message and configurator page indicate it's the regular ACX 3.0, but the specs and spec sheet if you click "More Info" indicate it is the 1708/1845 MHz SC version.

So ranking wise, the SC version > founders > Asus in terms of which one's better?

JUst to save everyone's time... I been told by Alex that specifically the EVGA ACX 3.0 cannot be water cooled as DS does not have water blocks for these cards.

Correct, as we believe the Founder Edition waterblocks could be different than the EVGA ACX 3.0 -- another valid point is that if you're liquid cooling the graphics cards, it won't make much sense to go with the ACX 3.0 since we would remove the air coolers anyways. There are also notes that the Founder Edition cards can overclock better.

Hey so if we get the "superclocked" edition, since it runs a bit hotter how are we with cooling it? Standard fans okay? Do you guys have any ACX 3.0 non overclocked cards?

I can always do better oc with no sc/ftw editions, only the classified does better IMHO.

According to EK these Waterblocks fit the SC edition

Wonder if the cooling is good enough on the SC, sucks the hybrid won't be out for a while.

I personally don't care for the hybrid, the acx 3.0 is pretty good at cooling but its no lc setup.
