Palit GeForce GTX 670

The GeForce GTX 670 has a maximum power consumption of 170~180 Watts, you'll need to power the card with two 6-pin PCIe PEG leads from your power supply. Due to the small PCB the connectors look a little oddly placed, but that is because the cooler is longer than the actual PCB. 

Power supply wise we recommend a 550 power supply to start with, with one card of course.

The GeForce GTX 670 PCB measures 9.5 in length. Display outputs include two dual-link DVIs, one HDMI and one DisplayPort connector. The top part has been kept open for ventilation so that the card can exhaust hot air, the cooler design however will vent hot air into the chassis.

The JetStream GeForce GTX 670 has a similar looking cooler design that the JetSTream GTX 680 also uses, however this one is 2-fan 3-slot based and the capacity much lower. Inside the fan acoustic dampening materials have been used to prevent fan noise and unwanted weird tones. Once activated an LED will emit blue light from the cooler.

Once the ambient air has been used to cool the GPU, the hot air will be blown only partially outside the PC through the exhaust as you can see above the monitor connectors. However most of the heat will be blown into the chassis itself as the cooling casing is open close to the PCB and rear side. Make sure you have proper ventilation inside the PC chassis... always.
