AMD’s new style of plastic shroud has been implemented on the R7 260X but don’t be fooled as nothing much has changed under the hood – it still has the same basic heatsink design – but then again this is all such a low TDP card really needs.
The PCB is black which is always nice and there is a single CrossFire connector for 2 way CFX.
From the top you can see the monolithic aluminium heatsink lump used to cool the GPU.
From the top we get another shot at that and see some Radeon branding.
At the end we can see the fan’s PWM connection and a single 6 pin PCIe power port.
The rear I/O is pretty standard for an AMD RX 2XX series card and the dual DVI, single HDMI and single DP allow for up to Eyefinity 6 with a single MST hub. On the HD 7790 this wasn’t possible as on the HD 7000 series you need a unique display port signal for each set of three screens, with the RX 2XX series you can run Eyefinity across any selection of outputs so with the R7 260X you can do three screens by DVI/DVI/HDMI and three via the single DisplayPort using an MST Hub.
