Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 WindForce OC Edition Graphics Card Pictured

Gigabyte’s GeForce GTX 770 WindForce has been listed by Chinese retailers, the card uses a custom designed cooler and a non-reference PCB design that delivers better performance.

The GeForce GTX 770 Lightning from Gigabyte comes with a
non-reference PCB that uses the GK104-425-A2 cooler that features 1536
Cuda cores, 128 TMUs and 32 ROPs along with a 2GB GDDR5 memory that
operates along 256-bit interface. From previous reports, we know that
the reference models would be clocked at 1046 MHz core and 1085 MHz boost while the memory would be effectively clocked at 7 GHz which would give a good performance boost over the GeForce GTX 680. However, the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 WindForce OC being a custom model would make use of a factory overclock out-of-box. Chances are that the base clock would be configured over 1100 MHz.

Additionally, the GeForce GTX 770 WindForce would make use of the
flagship Triangle cooling design which would use three 10cm PWM fans and
a large aluminum fin array heatsink equipped with six copper heatpipes
which would deliver a maximum cooling performance of upto 450W. Do note
that this is the same WindForce heatsink version equipped on the GeForce
GTX 780 hence delivering better cooling. The GPU comes with 4-Way SLI
support and is powered by an 8-Pin plus 6-Pin connectors compared to
dual 6-Pin on the reference models. Display outputs include Dual DVI,
HDMI and a display port. The reference GeForce GTX 770 would cost
$399-$449 at launch so we can expect a premium price point for this
model. I do want to point out that both 2 GB and 4 GB models of the card
would be available at launch.
