Alright... photo's! A couple of pages with photos then and most of it from our own photo-shoot. And there is, the GeForce GTX 760 from ASUS and yes, it is a rather small looking bloke.The card is using an updated revision of ther DirectCU II design, which now uses thicker direct-contact copper heatpipes for pretty good heat dissipation.

The card is using a dual-slot cooler which uses two silent 90mm fans. An aluminum radiator covers the VRM and even memory area. I know, DirectCUII is a lot of marketing, but the cooler overall brings in good temperatures whilst keeping the card silent. Thats a win-win situation in my book.

With the GeForce GTX 760 you will receive four display connectors, you'll spot a full size Display port connector, one full size HDMI connector and two DVI connectors (dual-link). You can combine these connectors to setup a surround view (multi-monitor) setup. One card will give you more than sufficient performance to play your games on three monitors. To date we still receive this question a lot, but dual-link DVI does not mean you can hook up two monitors to one connector. Dual-link means double the signal, that way monitor resolutions over 1920x1200 can be supported or you could use a 120Hz monitor. So explained very simple, dual-link DVI supports high-resolution (above 1920x1200) or high-refresh rate (120Hz) monitors.

ASUS offers this card factory clocked for you at 1006 MHz with a Boost clock of 1072 MHz. And as our article will show later on, there's a lot of room left for tweaking as we got this little puppy running stable at roughly 1300 MHz on the boost frequency. The card is almost 8.66 Inches in length which is like 22 cm. With this size it should be easy to position in any PC really.
