Additional power for extreme GPU overclocking


In case you missed it back when we were writing about it, the G-Powerboard, as Gigabyte has decided to call it, is a slave VRM board for graphics cards which has to be manually soldered to the graphics card. As you can see from the pictures below, it draws power from no less than five 8-pin PCI-Express power connectors and will be actively cooled by a small cooler.

The G-Powerboard should provide stable voltage and constant power to the graphics card making sure that there is no voltage drops or any other VRM related problems during those extreme overclocking scenarios, something that will be surely appreciated by extreme overclockers.

Hopefully we will see the G-Powerboard in action quite soon as we happen to know a lot of overclockers that will be anxious to try it out.
