Gigabyte Mini-ITX GTX 970 Graphics Card
Gigabyte has produced a Mini-ITX GeForce GTX 970 Graphics Card, yeah it's cute alright. You soon will be able to find it under SKU code GV-N970IXOC-4GD. The card is running at 1076 MHz Base with a Boost clock of 1216 MHz, which is actually a notch faster then the reference cards. The card has a single 8-pin PCI-Express power connector.
The cooler on the card hints towards the WindForce 3X design but obviously just has one fan opposed to three. It comes with a "Triangle Cool" design to guide the air for more effective cooling. Heat is transferred to this fin array through two 8 mm heatpipes and one 5 mm heatpipe.
The card runs at roughly 62 degrees C while running the Metro Last Night benchmark, not bad really. Though the card is still a dual-slot solution it is narrower than other high-performance Mini-ITX graphics card solutions that we've seen in the past. Gigabyte's card is only 12 cm in length. Monitor outputs are the same as the larger 900-series card from Gigabyte, consisting of two DVI ports, three DisplayPort interfaces, and an HDMI port.
Gigabyte has priced the card at $329.99, which is Nvidia's reference MSRP pricing. Mighty interesting !

Godsend? m1 already supports 31cm< GPUs
This card is a godsend for all the ncase m1 builders out there. And if you don't know what the ncase m1 is you really should research it. It's only the tiniest most powerful mini itx case ever. Full no compromise power in the smallest footprint possible.

Sweet. Mini 970/980 are going to sell very well considering the performance and low power consumption.
