The PCB design of NVIDIA's upcoming and first GK106 based GPU "GTX 660" has been leaked by PHK. Once again we see that NVIDIA opted to choose the shorter PCB design which is also being used on the GTX 670 and GTX 660Ti.
Although the picture is a massive blur fest but still it shows some key features of the board such as a Single SLI connector, Memory chips scattered on the sides and back of the PCB. The VRM area is located near the rear end of the GPU which is powered through a single 6 Pin connector.
