What is the best 200 mm (7.874 in) long video card I can get?

[mohfuu]

Hey guys.

I want to make a m-ITX build and I want the best video card I can get, must be no longer than 200 millimeters. What card should I get? Is there some online store where I can browse cards based on length?

Will be putting it into this case: http://www.xigmatek.com/product.php?productid=219&type=specification

The new top end gtx 970 is available is a short card

That card, according to nvidia.com is 10.5 inches..

No it's not short enough, the shortest one is a Zotac and it's 20,4 cm long, so it won't fit.
I know of the MSI GTX 760 ITX and Sapphire's R9 285 ITX, I'm not sure if there are more powerful ITX cards than those (don't know any at least)..

On hexus they announced a short itx version a few days ago I think

I would appreciate a source on this if you could possibly find it.

Cant find it , but read on Nvidia site it states Mini ITX cards from the new 970/980 in the press release http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/maxwell-architecture-gtx-980-970

Don't get the Zotac card though, thinking that 4mm won't make a difference. Case manufacturers tend to take the GPU-length limitations too lightly, 200mm usually means like 195 mm max. or so, otherwise the card will collide with components or side panel.

Thanks for the effort, but it only mentions that GTX 980 is perfect for m-ITX, which by all means it is, except in this particular case which can't house it. (I'm not being sarcastic or anything)

I just either need a site where I can browse by card length or filter them by that quality somehow.
Either that or some kind of database? I stumbled across this on google, which is a database of cards that can be filtered and sorted by length.... downside is that it is crowdsourced and outdated.

If I'm going to look at each card individually to identify length then I think I'll be looking for a card for a very very very very long time.

I think I might just end up getting a different case, not having the information I need readily available is killing me.

This is where having a local computer shop is useful, so you can go in and say "I need this, what do you have"

I know this is an old page, but for the people looking for a present solution, I found a GTX 960 on Amazon for $200 that is under 200mm in length

Why not go with the Gigabyte GTx 970 Mini ITX OC http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GeForce-Overclocked...? I believe it should be small enough to meet your needs and is probably the most powerful card in it's size.
