AKIMBO series is dual slot

 

EVGA has launched a new series branded AKIMBO, with the 8800GT as a first card in this new series. This card comes with a GPU clock of 720MHz and a new dual slot heat sink and fan which should drop the temperature up to 25°C.

This new card also uses 3-phase power design which should allow additional overclocking, and comes with 512MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 2000MHz. The Shader clock on the new card is overclocked to 1728MHz. This new series will also have one more card which will be clocked at 600/1500/1800MHz for core, Shaders and memory. The entire series is cooled by EVGA's new AKIMBO dual slot fan kit, which can be bought separately.

The new cooler looks like the 8800GTS 512MB cooler, and the new AKIMBO series will use an orange sticker instead of the army looking sticker that we have seen on the 8800GTS 512MB version. You can find the cards here and here, and the new fan kit here.
