This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Runs 23C at idle and have seen it reach 40C at load even under Crysis w/ 4xAA. Comes w/ a back plate which is an improvement over previous generations of the LCS offered by Powercolor. Overclocks easily.
Cons: Non yet.
Other Thoughts: Costs a more than the other 5870's but when you include the cost of a $100 aftermarket wc block, still having a warranty and ready go in the WC loop, it's a net gain for the consumer in my estimation.

Pros: Very solid card! The block is nickel plated and very sexy, and keeps my card at 23C idle. I have also overclocked to 1050mhz on the core with a max temp of ~35C using a swiftech 360 radiator. I have been very impressed with this card so far!
Cons: A bit expensive... The block alone is about $100 and then i guess you have a warranty that includes your waterblock. It just seems a bit excessive when you think of the price that powercolor gets the blocks at..
Other Thoughts: Overall awesome card using msi afterburner and stock bios you can clock this thing like crazy! I could probably get to 1100 mhz if i really wanted but that would be pushing the volts, but on the other hand the temp should be fine :)

Great Card!!

Pros: The card also includes a pre-mounted black metal back plate in addition to the black water block. Runs 45c under load. Drivers work well, I have not encountered the problems that some are having. EK water block already installed, so I don't have to deal with the hassle of installing one. Comparative in price to other manufacturer's 5870's with only stock cooling. Great deal!
Cons: Due to the layout of the display ports, it takes up two slots - not enough to take away an egg though, as all 5870's do so.
Other Thoughts: So far, the card exceeds my expectations! Came with a coupon for Dirt 2.
