Aside from custom coolers, would a longer custom pcb have an advantage of the short one?

Edit: those benches look sweet.

Hope KFA ahve a custom cooled one available!

I'd guess a higher headroom for overclocking, noticed that GB X3 has 8+6pin.

Decided to hold off on the 680 purchase and see what these bring to the table, just hope those wanting the 680 PCB aren't going to have to pay a huge premium to do so.

@Gibbo, are tech lab 670's likely to be available from launch? Given that those on the 680 PCB seemingly take 680 blocks natively.

Gibbo said the longer pcb is the same as the 480 one. Probably a bit of extra room for overclocking.

Hi there

I've got short and ones using GTX 680 PCBs in stock. :D

They shall be over £300 though folks, but not much and damn they are quick! Bencher one today against a 680, I was impressed. :)

Found full specs for the Gigabyte GTX 670 Windforce 3X OC.

Core - 980mhz / boost 1058mhz
Memory speed - 6008mhz
Memory - 2048MB
Stream processors - 1344
Mem bus - 256bit
Mem type - 64m x 32 GDDR5
I/O - Dual Link DVI-I / DV-D, 1 x HDMI, 1 x displayport
Card dimensions - H=43 L=285 W=136.6 mm
 
The implications of the pcb size has completely fried my brain.

Can someone tell me which one I go for? Small pcb or one using a 680 pcb? As above then, does the 680 pcb mean higher potential overclocks or is it maybe a 680 which didnt make the cut?
 
Some information for you all.




The MSI card should be priced between £330 to £350 at launch. The Gigabyte could be a bit more at £350 to £370.


--------------------------------------------------------------->

These I think are the dimensions of what will be the Palit card.

30 x 240 x 150mm



----------------------------------------------------------->


Specs on the KFA2 card, the non OC version. Non OC version should be a very good price, hopefully a shade over £300.

Base Clock 915MHz / Boost Clock 980MHz
Memory Clock 3004Mhz (Effective 6008mhz)
1344 CUDA Processors
2048MB GDDR5
192.3GB/sec Memory Bandwidth

Sweet. Cheers for the KFA news.
 
I dont get why they put a bigger cooler on it than the PCB size.

A cyclone / intel type cooler like the GTX 560 ti reference design would be fine on these cards!

These GPUs are so cool that putting big exhaust blowers or multiple fans on them is just daft, they really only need a single fansink design.

Like this, this would be the best cooler for a GPU this cool:

Or MSI's Cyclone:

it doesnt need dual / triple fan.
