Gigabyte NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 Super Overclock Windforce 5X Pictured

Gigabyte has revealed a new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 design during their Tech Tour 2012: The GTX 680 Super Overclock Windforce 5X. The GPU, which uses Gigabytes new Windforce 5X cooler, uses a dense aluminum heatsink array with 9 6mm heatpipes. The base of the heatsink array is copper plated and covers the GPU core, and memory, all of which is cooled by 5 40mm fans and takes up 3 slots. The fans are setup a bit differently this time around, instead of blowing air at the heatsink array it instead sucks the air away from the heatsink and blows it towards the side panel. To supply power to the GPU, Gigabyte is using a 6pin + 8pin PCIe power connector setup instead of the reference design’s dual-6pin connectors. Rounding out the design, Gigabyte chose to utilize a strong PCB with Proselytizer film capacitors for a durable product. The display outputs consist of two DVI, an HDMI, and one Displayport. Gigabyte will also utlize their dual BIOS technology which combined with this Ultra Durable VGA should make enthusiasts happy. Pricing, Availability and clock speeds of GTX 680 Super Overclock Windforce 5X is unknown at this time.
