XFX chose to use the reference design for the GeForce GTX 260 Black Edition. This is a good thing as modifying the reference design can cause problems with the thermal dissipation and testifies to NVIDIA's design expertise, as the XFX card is clocked over 90MHz higher than the reference clocks. The heatsink is colored black hence the name of the card.  Card front  Rear of Card  Rear view  Logo The GeForce GTX 260 Black Edition card supports Tri-SLI with two Golden Finger bridges on the top of the card to facilitate this. If the motherboard and case support three-way SLI it can offer up to 2.5x the performance of a single GTX 260. Note that using a different GTX 260 216 with the XFX card is not recommended as the XFX card is highly overclocked compared to other retailers and won't get the same performance increase as it will down clock to the other card's level when in SLI mode.  SLI Bridge  PCI Express  Power  Fan The GeForce GTX 260 requires a lot of power and the XFX version is no exception to this rule as they have two 6-pin power connectors on the card to provide the extra juice that a card clocked at 666MHz requires. The IO on the card has two DVI ports and a HDTV Out port which allows the computer to be attached to a TV. Dual monitors are possible via two DVI monitors, a HDMI+DVI, DVI+VGA or HDMI+VGA through included adapters. Contents:
