NVIDIA 8600 GT class cards.

In general terms, the HD 2600 XT is a diminutive card. It is the
smallest card of the five we will be benching today. The printed
circuit board is about an inch shorter than this Asus 8600 GTS.

Of the first things you may notice about this card is that it has no
external power connector. We'll look at the power consumption numbers
later, but for now, it's safe to say that it is not in the same
power-class of a hog as its older brother, the HD 2900 XT. This
probably has a lot to do with its 65 nanometer fabrication process.
The other cards were made with 80(+) nanometer die process. As you
probably know, the smaller the chip, the less power it needs, and the
more cooling is required.
