It’s shorter than the reference design and it’s made by Galaxy

It appears that Nvidia imposed little design limitations to its partners when it comes to the design of the GeForce GTX 680 and GeForce GTX 670 cards. Galaxy’s custom GeForce GTX 670 reportedly got the digital camera treatment and pictures.

The situation is much different with the GeForce GTX 690 dual GPU cards. There, Nvidia doesn’t seem to allow partners to modify the reference design.

The design of the single slot Galaxy GeForce GTX 670 video card is similar to Galaxy’s previously spotted single slot GTX 600 series card. We’re talking about the first single slot GTX 680 card ever pictured.

The length of the PCB seems to be just 65% of the length of the reference design. The apparent length of the card is maintained by the fact that the cooler is prolonged at the back of the card.

The card is fueled by two 6-pin PCIe power connectors.

On the backside there are only three output connectors: a dual-link DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort.
