Over at Fuwell, we found the Leadtek DUO PX6600GT. The Leadtek DUO PX6600GT is factory overclocked, with clockspeeds of 550Mhz/1120Mhz. One of the distinctive difference about this card, as compared to other cards, is the ability to work on all Nvidia SLi based motherboards. Unlike solutions from other brands which requires a both the graphics card and the motherboard of the same brand to work, Leadtek totally does not have this prerequisite. Priced at $699, this card is a piece of SLi technology at it's best.

The card itself. Due to it's 2 core configuration, this card is made to be longer then others.

 

The back of the card. The metal plate is just for securing the massive front heatsink, not for cooling.

 

This card comes with Dual DVI output on it's I/O connector.

 

For those who want multiple monitors setup, they could connect the included VGA I/O header onto these ports, and have 2 additional VGA connector. To users who isn't interested in performance, they could connect up to 4 monitors just with 1 graphics card!

 

A 6 pin PCIe Graphics power connection is needed for the operation of this card.
