My experience with the 690 hydrocopper hasn't been all that stellar due to many reasons but once I got my hands on a good gtx 690 and a hydrocopper on that card, its one hell of a combination.
 
First off, a couple pictures of the product. 
 



 
 
With the waterblock on the 690, I was able to push the card to a offset of +180mhz at a power setting of +134%
 

 
This gives a final clock of a healthy 1228mhz. That's quite an overclock for a dual graphics card. Sure its no 1300+ like the 680 classys but hey I've got two of these things on one PCB.
 
First up, unigine 1920x1200 max everything.

 
With AA, Tessellation, and Anisotropy set to maximum, I was able to get an average of 87.9 fps.
After looping for about 30 minutes, my card topped out around 44-45C. I'm running a RX360, 60mm radiator, with a overclocked 2700K @ 5.0 Ghz in the loop. Sure 45C is slightly higher than what most people are getting but I'm also pumping in 1.485V into the CPU. Not to mention, the ambient temperature is 78F
 
The card idles around 28-29C.
 
For comparison, I ran Unigine at completely default 1080p again and came up with a score of 4925.

 
 
Next 3Dmark11. I've only got the basic edition right now so all I can do is the performance run.
I've got a P score of 16560

If anyone wants to give me a 3dmark11 advanced key, I can run an extreme test as well. :)

    No that you have found the gpu, raise up that memory and you will see P scores in the 17000,  Both mine did that.

    Doh! I totally forgot about the memory
     
    Acutally, I can't seem to hit 1700.
     
    With a +180  core offset and a 700 memory offset I still top out at 16722

    Maybe it's the 2700K's Hyperthreading?

    My original 690 took a 1000 MHz memory overclock without a problem. My replacement looks like its topping out at 700.

    What kind of memory speeds were you getting at p17000

    You guys are doing much better then me. I purchased the GTX690 Hydrocopper directly from EVGA and I cannot even get the GPU offset over 138 Mhz without crashing in 3D Mark 11 !   I had no problem with the memory offset and I can set it as high as I want without affect anything. Since I used an inline water chiller I can get the temperature down to 10 C or 50 F without any problem, somehow the cool temperature didn't help with the overclocking !
