ASUS Unveils the GeForce GTX 960 Mini
ASUS announced the GeForce GTX 960 Mini, a graphics card that combines the company's renowned compact mini-ITX friendly board design, with NVIDIA's latest performance-segment GPU. The GTX 960 Mini (model: GTX960-MOC-2GD) looks identical in design to the GTX 670 Mini and the GTX 760 Mini. The full-height PCB is just 17 cm long, and features a dense heatpipe-fed toroidal aluminium fin-stack heatsink that's ventilated by a "CoolTech" fan, which is a hybrid between top-flow and lateral-flow blowers.
The card is factory-overclocked, and comes with 1190 MHz core, 1253 MHz GPU Boost, and an untouched 7.00 GHz memory; against reference clocks of 1126/1178 MHz. The card draws power from a single 6-pin PCIe power connector. A solid brushed-aluminium back-plate adds to its appeal. Display outputs include one each of dual-link DVI, HDMI 2.0, and three DisplayPort 1.2 connectors. ASUS didn't reveal pricing or availability.

Both fit a standard VGA card.
Although Gigabyte have a serious contender with their 750 low profile. This thing has insane amount of outputs for an LP card.
750Ti. And thats pretty much the most powerfull card you can get in this formfactor.
Given the Web's various 960 round-up's have shown the cards from reference design (I saw one review) and all the way to "top-shelve", while sundry in appearanc they all still seemed to comingle in one mass with nothing differencing them. Even in fps they huddle in place, even highly touted OC'd units do not seem to spread out from the pack.
These "Mini" models would've at least given folk something that's distinctive verse the mangerie of the me-tos that all huddled in posture that gets oh-hum.
It's perfect for a card this size, but I cannot have the pcie connector on top. there is no room for the plug. It seems that most cases that actually need cards this size also cannot have the connector on top. and only sapphire can figure this out, as their r9 285 compact has the connector facing backwards.

They may be low enough to fit without obstructing the case.
