Compact and cool
To keep things cool, the video card has a pair of 90mm fans along with some chunky copper heatpipes. In terms of connectivity you get three DisplayPorts (1.4), an HDMI 2.0b port, and a DL-DVI connector.
The new GTX 1070 Mini is on sale now, retailing for just under the £400 mark in the UK, and over in the US it has launched with a price of $395 (around AU$550).
This card follows in the footsteps of Gigabyte’s GTX 1070 Mini ITX OC, which came out in July and is actually an even smaller board being 170mm in length, plus it can be cranked up to a clock speed of 1746MHz in its OC (overclocked) mode.
