I would want to "fix it" all the time.
GIEF NAOW
Or perhaps MSI could sell a barebones of his, with a 8 pin plug and a lack of "slant" to it.Nope. That cooler is definitely dual slot height. The fan alone is nearly as thick as a single slot card. Look at the back of the case, it's dual slot. You are not going to get a single slot 120 watt GPU these days.
But yes there's no appealing reason to release single slot cards for gamers anymore. Even low profile cards are loosing ground. And that's because of sff cases are started to use pcie raisers to tilt card 90°, which makes use of full high cards on sff cases.

On the PS4 reveal, I remember thinking it was a little too angled for my tastes, but ended getting used to it. Now this is a whole new level of edges, angles and stuff. Good job MSI!
I wish valve released the original steam machine case... that was a good standard for this kind of stuff. Fully modular, full length GPU and internal PSU. A little deeper than this, yeah, but that was well worth the size.
