PNY Announces Reference Design GeForce GTX 960

PNY rolled out a reference-design NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 graphics card, for those who want a plain vanilla card at NVIDIA's baseline $199.99 pricing. The card features the company's default NVTTM (NVIDIA Time to Market) cooling solution, which has been widely used on the company's performance-segment and mid-range products, such as the GTX 760, GTX 670, GTX 660 Ti, and GTX 660. It sticks to reference clock speeds of 1128 MHz core, 1178 MHz GPU Boost, and 7.00 GHz memory. Based on the 28 nm "GM206" silicon, the GTX 960 offers 1024 CUDA cores, 64 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and a 128-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, holding 2 GB of memory.

The shroud and fan looks ugly to me. It looks like charred plastic to me. Maybe something that was in @Toothless oven a little too long. :p

Yeah, sorry about that. PNY told me to "bake up something nice for the new 960's cooler" and I fell asleep with the oven on. My bad.

TBH I like these kinds of plain boxy coolers. My all time favorite is the HD 6970 reference cooler

The back of the PCB looks like it's had a fair bit of heat through it too, is this the test one they send out or a retail model that's been burnt in?
