The two DVI ports support simultaneous HDCP and dual-link (meaning a possible 2560 x 1600 for 30"). This is the first card in the series to boast this feature, others being incapable of the feat. Given the fact HDMI is supported natively, manufacturers may choose to integrate a port, or otherwise, you may have to purchase an (expensive) DVI to HDMI adapter, which blows.
Both DVI connectors are dual-link DVI of course. With the 7-pin HDTV-out mini-din, a user can plug an S-video cable directly into the connector, or use a dongle for YPrPb (component) or composite outputs. The prior 9-pin HDTV-out mini-din connector required a dongle to use S-video, YPrPb and composite outputs.
At the rear end we'll also stumble onto the 6-pin PSU connector. At full load the card can peak at ~105 Watt power consumption.
Here we can see the SLI finger / connector at the top of the PCB. One to be precise, not two as on the flagship GTX models for 3-way SLI.
For the "ooh and aah" factor: live and working in the test system. UV reflective stickers .. that's always pretty cool in our test system.
