As you can see, the card is equipped with two dual-link DVI connectors and a mini-HDMI connector. A mini-HDMI to 'normal' HDMI converter should be included in the bundle, ours was missing though. We like the big exhaust shim that will help ventilate out more hot air coming from the GPU.

The PCB is very clean and crisp alright. Here we see the backside, notice that you'll only get one SLI finger, a maximum of two cards can be set up in SLI, that is as far as you can go with a multi-GPU setup. In the middle that big chip is the Proadlizer IC that works as a power noise filter, bringing purer power to the GPU and memory.

We mentioned them already, these are the six active power Phase LEDs that color up the environment once the card is activated. The board also has voltage monitoring points by the way, it looks like Gigabyte these days is copying a lot of ideas from MSI.
