Once this card gets released, could you do a review of the various mini itx cards? I am curious on the power draw as well as the temperatures between the different brands/models. The case I'm working with only allows short length cards due to an AIO CPU radiator in front of it.

This is what miners should have to buy.. the full length cards for gamers

Agree with Jasonelmore. There should be a law.
Interesting that it's listed at 250W TDP but only has a potential 225W available with the single 8pin aux power+ board.

Hmmmmm...So mini-itx meaning it should be WAY less expensive. I'm thinking $399.

Interesting, as so far, very few 1080 have been able to cope with the length restriction of my mitx case. To the point I had almost lost any hope.
Looking forward to seeing, maybe, at TI ??

That's pretty much never how mini ITX works, actually it's almost always more expensive.

I would personally say the other way around since most gamers are into smaller cases for easier transportation and miners could care less that their rig looks like since it never goes anywhere.

The smaller the video card, the more goodies you can fit in a mini-itx case, like AIO units and hard drives.
