A Quick Look At The GeForce 6600 GT

As seen in our Leadtek GeForce 6600 GT AGP review, the 6600 series doesn't require any complex cooling solutions like the GeForce 6800 series. The reference board's default cooler was more than sufficient as it got the job done decently and there was no issues of the cooler being noisy either.

This is the reference NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT PCI Express graphics card with its straightforward layout and cooling unit.

To fulfill the 128MB local frame buffer of the card, the PCB of the card had four pieces of 2ns DDR3 Samsung memory chips (which meet its 1GHz DDR operation perfectly).

The flip side of the graphics card.

On the rear, we found a Philips SAA7115 video decoder chip that enables video capturing when coupled with the right software.

At the top of the card, you'll find a small row of gold fingers. This is NVIDIA's proprietary digital SLI link, which is used with a connecting bridge to the secondary PCI Express graphics card to enable SLI functionality.

The rear I/O faceplate of the card has the same connectors that are common among all modern graphics cards.
