3D Mark 11

With the freedom for overclocking that the watercooled LCS brings the performance is excellent. It's a fair whack ahead of a standard overclocked HD6970 and indeed is the best scoring card in our graph.

3D Mark Vantage

Vantage always prefers nVidia cards and their PhysX so while the LCS doesn't top our graph it's still the best of the rest, beating its air-cooled brother pretty handily.

I must admit i'm impressed. After the first review of the 6970 with an air cooler the 6970 seemed pointless but this version is definietly worth the money especially after looking at the performance results.

Always liked the look of this. Watercooling without the warranty voiding.

Hope you get to do a review of the 6990 version when its released.Quote

Yeah just tweaking my xfx 6970 that I put a xspc razor block on a few days ago. Sitting at 950mhz and 1425 on the ram amazing what watercooling can do. This card running heaven never breaches 53 Degrees. That's in loop with one 360 rad and a 950 cpu @ 4.0 ghz.Quote
