Although its HydroGen motherboards haven't really 'made it big' MSI has decided on expanding the HydroGen brand to include graphics cards too. The first product to bear the name and thus be cooled by sweet flowing liquid is a GeForce 9800 GTX. The new cards is now showcased at MSI's Computex booth and it features an all-copper waterblock and a pump and radiator system provided by Thermaltake.

With the G92 chip, memory and VRM all cooled with the liquid system the 9800 GTX HydroGen could come with higher that stock frequencies but if it won't it'll still have a lot of overclocking potential. Not that it may matter with the GeForce GTX 260 and 280 arriving in just two weeks.
