ASUS ROG Poseidon GTX780 Review
Metro 2033

Metro 2033
If we thought Hitman was bad, then Metro 2033 is a horror show. At stock the ROG Poseidon is the worst GTX780 we've tested. Sure it's only a frame, but they all count otherwise we wouldn't measure them.

Tom, one small suggestion, usually I'm not a grammar Nazi as long as I understand what anyone is trying to say but the way you pronounce "Poseidon" made me cringe when I was watching the Rushkit video

I really like this card, it looks absolutely awesome. In my opinion though Asus need to drop the price by £30-40 to further distance that gap between full cover and this hybrid cooler.
Personally, if I was going all out to watercool my rig and considering the costs of the Poseidon is the same as a 780 with a full cover block, I would go for the full cover over this.
But, if the price of the Poseidon was that £30-40 cheaper then I (and many others) would be more than likely to go for it.
For the convenience and warranty issues and all the rest of it, it is worth it though.Quote

I really do like this card, very good design. A well deserved innovation award.
It was a shame ASUS were unable to change it to a 780Ti variant, but that's more nvidia's fault than anyone else, releasing a new gaming flagship without any notice.
I do hope we will see more cards of this design in the future.Quote
