Asus this time round have opted for a twin fan cooler design and like many other Asus coolers, we find it slightly offset to the right to give better airflow around the I/O end of the card. At the top and bottom we can just see the heatpipes that all lead to the GPU core.

Each of the two 80mm fans have eleven blades for whisper quiet operation and behind these we can see a part of the DirectCU II cooler.

Nestled behind the heatsink at the top end of the card, we find a single 6-pin power connector. On the opposite of the PCB behind where the power connector is, we find two LEDs which alternate between green and red to indicate when the power cable is connected and working.

The GTX 660 offers up support for two way SLI so a single bridge is present for two cards to be connected.

Finally moving round to the I/O we find a fairly standard NVIDIA output array with two DVI (one DVI-D and one DVI-I), a single HDMI and a full sized DisplayPort. To the top left we find a small grill for heat ventilation out of the card.

As this card is only reference spec’d, we see from GPU-Z that we have a core clock speed of 980MHz, which boosts upto 1033MHz and a memory clock speed of 1502MHz (6004MHz effective).
