As we’ve mentioned in a previous article, nVIDIA has decided to abandon the dual-PCB design for their next high-level models, those that feature two GPUs working in parallel. After many rumors, here are the images of the new GeForce GTX295 single-PCB.

As it can be seen from the images, thanks to the new single-PCB design, nVIDIA was able to modify and simplify the heatsink. Although the card still takes two slots, the simplifications have lowered manufacturing costs, which can probably result in a lower final price for the customers as well.

Expected to launch by the end of this month, the new GeForce GTX295 single-PCB will keep all the technical specifications of the dual-PCB model: Two GT200 in parallel, 448bit memory interface x 2, 240 stream processors for each core, 1792MB GDDR3 memory and frequencies at 576/1242/1998MHz for core, shader and memory, respectively.

We’ll leave you to the images. Enjoy.
