The Twin Silencer dominates the cards appearance with two bright orange fans proudly on display hovering over what appears to be an aluminium finned heatsink shrouded by a black metal 'open' style frame with a couple of inserts to protect your fingers from the fans.



Again, we were impressed by ZOTAC's PCB colouration which is a solid matt black, matching the GPU shroud perfectly. As with the GTX660Ti, The Zotac design has 4x256MB GDDR5 memory modules on the rear of the PCB which do not receive any active cooling. Hopefully this will not prevent memory overclocking!



The I/O backplate of the card features a twin DVI ports, HDMI and a display ports along with a small vent not that it's required in all honesty as the majority of hot air is exhausted back into the case.



The cards profile is very small with it measuring just 175mm long (185mm including shroud). Unlike the Titanium version of the card, this version makes do with just 2 copper heatpipes, presumably because this card does not need the extra cooling capacity.



The card is powered by a single 6pin PCIe power plug which most modern PSU's should have at least one of. If not the ZOTAC have thoughtfully added a MOLEX to PCIe adapter. A 450W PSU with a 24A rating is recommended by ZOTAC for this GPU.



Unlike its bigger brother, the GTX660 has only one SLI tab meaning the maximum amount of cards you would be able to link together would be two.



I like the look of the GTX660. IT is small enough to fit all but the smallest PC setups and would be perfect for an mATX or HTPC if you are short on space. The contrasting orange and black theme, as ever, works very well together and is immediately identifiable as a ZOTAC product.

Let's delve a little deeper and take a closer look at today's sample...
