It’s been a while since the launched of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970. But, Gigabyte trying their best to make a better custom design cooler for the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970. The company successfully equipped the graphic card with a lateral blower-type cooling solution, which pushes hot air out of the case, through its I/O shield air-vents and this makes it “twin-turbo”. According to Gigabyte, this cooler has intakes on both sides of the card, thanks to the company opting for the short GTX 970 PCB to make it possible.
The graphic card offers factory-overclocked speeds of 1101 MHz core, 1241 MHz GPU Boost, and a memory clock of 7012 MHz (GDDR5-effective). Therefore, the GTX 970 Twin Turbo also available in a non-OC SKU which has the same clock speed as reference clocks of 1076 MHz core, and 1216 MHz GPU Boost. For power consumption, Gigabyte successfully squeezes in a single 8-pin PCIe power connector (will draw around 225 Watt). Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.2, and one each of HDMI 2.0 and dual-link DVI.
The price for non-OC version will be expected to be priced at USD 300 (approx. RM 1,150), while the OC-SKU will be around USD 330 (approx. RM 1,260).
