Galaxy Unveils Single Slot-Capable Liquid-Cooled GeForce GTX 680 Graphics Card
Galaxy released a picture of a new GeForce GTX 680 graphics card it's working on, a liquid-cooled model that beats EVGA's GTX 680 HydroCopper at being truly single-slot capable. It does this by using the 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power connectors in the same plane, instead of using an 8+6 pin piggy-backed connector that spans across two expansion slots. Also changed here is the stacked DVI connector cluster, it's replaced by two mini-DisplayPort connectors next to a full-size HDMI and a full-size DisplayPort. The card uses a full-coverage water-block, with its coolant ports protruding outwards on top, so enthusiasts will have plumb out tubing for each card in SLI setups, and can't use conventional multi-port fittings, unless of course, Galaxy has a solution for that. More details are awaited.

Still waiting for that single slot air cooled 680.
i think even if someone makes a "single-slot" GTX 680 it will be so hard to get one that it will be almost impossible.
but seeing a full-cover block if i am not mistaking looking fine, but in my eyes it's not a beauty xD
making it one slot of outputs can be done by any company so when u put waterblock on it u will get one slot card.
