Rock on Zotac! Perfect for the Nzxt Vulcan case if it's not too thick for SLI ! The fans look ever so slightly higher than top edge of back plate. Can't wat till review. I like the orange, finally something to match my NZXT Vulcan OEM fans and front LED :D! I hope more manufacturers produce smaller card cooler designs for the shorter PCBs and even more single slot coolers for better air flow between SLI/Xfire cards. I hope those are torgue screws and not unremovable rivets. Perhaps a GTX 660 Ti version in the works ?


NICE FIND KAKTUS! Thanks for the early radar, props!!

fans are riveted! looks like a small fail.
Fan plate rivets, small torque holes, or under side screws ?... Picture is too small for me to tell. Being a field tech with Laptp and PC FRUs, I can't imagine they'd make those permanent rivets in the final production piece. RMA fan replacements would be costly to them if they have to trash a whole shroud/fan asembly each time. Wouldn't make $ and sense... lolz made a funny ;)

I don't think SLI will work too well with these. The heat will skyrocket with two side by side.
Kind of thinking ditto although I hope not :/


PS... will someone please follow Afox and glaxay and start producing MORE single slot coolers for these shorter 670/660 and 7850 PCBs before my Haswell upgrade :D? The galaxy one in the works is still to long imo.
