that stubby PCB

it has a "decent" factory overclock, same as the ITX version; but I'm guessing this one will be louder

Why are companies that usually only have open air coolers now randomly starting to do both?

 

First ASUS, now GIGABYTE..

 

Must be an open market or something because otherwise i'm fucking confused.

Small form factor likes their rear-exhaust cards, helps with heat reduction.

Asus has the Turbo 960 and now Gigabyte comes out with the twin turbo 970, yet neither have anything turbo about them. If you're going to call it twin turbo you should at least have two squirrel fans.

I kind of like it personally. Probably won't cost nearly as much as the bigger coolers either.

It looks less shit than the one Asus did.

 

Asus's one was completely plastic construction (haven't checked if this is yet), and just a tiny heat-sink and no heat pipes at all. In OC3D's testing the top card reached 80C which made it less effective than most open air coolers in SLI, which was sort of the point of the bi-directional blower.

This is good.  More options for those of us with matx boards (with close PCI-e slots) for possible SLI in the future and not have to worry about the cards being so close together and having heat issues.  That's why I got the Asus one a couple months ago (970 Turbo).

Well that just looks hideous.

How can that be? The reason the 970s have 3.5+0.5 of vram is because of GM204-200-A1 and the way nvidia cut it down. There is no way a board maker can fix this. The only way we will see a 970 without 3.5+0.5 is if nvidia released a GM204-200-A1 V2.

MSI and EVGA have been doing it for the longest, cheaper than getting reference cooled cards shipped (shipping weight, they can just buy the card without the reference cooler) and cheaper than their open air coolers, resulting in cheaper to the consumer and often bought by those looking to do custom liquid cooling.

I run my browser through NSA ports to make their illegal jobs easier. :P
If it's not broken, take it apart and fix it.

Get a reference 970 and attach it to your turbocharged car. 25 PSI of boost should be enough to cool the thing, right?

Ugh PSI

That's about 1.7 bar. Would shatter the entire card xD

 

I have played FPS games with my wacom bamboo  :lol:

Looks like an OEM product to me.

It's also for people that have their motherboard rotated 90 degrees. Blower styles work better for those setups.

 

Also, I'm looking forward to EVGA's/MSi's/Zotac's Triple Turbo card. I hear it's a totally original design and not a total rip off of ASUS's model. (obvious sarcasm)
