With WindForce 2X cooler

It appears that short Geforce GTX 960 are popular as Gigabyte has decided to launch two new Geforce GTX 960 graphics cards that will be slightly better than its original Geforce GTX 960 Mini we saw earlier.

Spotted by Techpowerup.com, both new Gigabyte GTX 960 graphics cards are based on the same short PCB as the Gigabyte GTX 960 Mini, will be 18.1cm long and feature a new Windforce 2X dual-fan cooler. Both the N960OC-4GD and the N960OC-2GD are pretty much the same, featuring the same design as well as working on the same 1190MHz GPU base and 1253MHz GPU Boost clocks.

Both also feature the same dual-slot Windforce 2X cooler which has a single 8mm S-shaped heatpipe that connects the GPU to aluminum heatsink which is cooled by two fans.

As you could have guessed from model names, this new Geforce GTX 960 graphics card from Gigabyte will have either 2GB or 4GB of GDDR5 memory, clocked at 7.0GHz and paired up with a 128-bit memory interface. In case you missed it, the Geforce GTX 980 is based on Nvidia's GM206 GPU and packs 1024 CUDA cores, 64 TMUs and 32 ROPs.

Both versions will need a single 6-pin PCI-Express power connector and have two DVI, one HDMI 2.0 and one DisplayPort 1.2 display output.

Unfortunately, Gigabyte did not reveal any details regarding the price or the precise availability date.
