We're all used to seeing factory overclocked boards from graphics AIBs, particularly with regard to NVIDIA-based parts - However, more often than not they only elicit a yawn from most enthusiasts, with modest overclocks of only 5 or 10MHz here and there.

They've addressed a number of issues that I found annoying in the earlier versions and improved the performance dramatically. I like the new look a lot and the enhanced cooling is augmented by new safety features that make the Reserator 2 an outstanding product.

The ZEROtherm GX710 is a good VGA cooling solution from a new player in this market. A tie, however, is rarely satisfying in this business. As I mentioned earlier, the GX710 is almost surely going to be more expensive that the GX700 and, being a bit heavier, doesn't have much to recommend it over the 700.
