ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU Mini set at $399 with May 20th release, up for pre-order (video)

ASUS’ GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU Mini graphics card first broke cover in April without a price or concrete release date, but now Newegg has dished out just those details along with extra specs. Loaded with 1,344 CUDA cores and 2GB of 256-bit GDDR5 RAM, the silicon boats a base clock of 928Mhz and a boost speed of 1,006MHz. The 6.7-inch-long hardware bound for diminutive — or even full-size — PCs rings up at $399, and is slated for availability on May 20th.

ASUS unveils GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU Mini graphics card destined for little rigs

ASUS unveils GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU Mini graphics card destined for little rigs

It’s easy to chop and change components in spacious towers, but small PCs need upgrading, too. If your stunted desktop has fallen into the “minimum system requirements” category for the latest games, then maybe the newly announced ASUS GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU Mini graphics card will interest you. Quite the mouthful, we know, but its long name contrasts with its small size — the dual-slot, 2GB card measures 6.7 inches on its longest edge, shaving almost 3 inches off the reference design. There’s no reason you can’t put the card in a regular case, of course, but it’s intended mainly for compact rigs with mini ITX or micro ATX motherboards. We don’t have pricing or release info yet, but if the cost of NVIDIA’s GTX 670 is anything to go by, expect to drop at least a trio of Benjamins on the petite version. Glamor shots and all the finer specs are available at the source links below.
