Zotac Unveils the GeForce GTX 1070 Mini Graphics Card
Zotac today unveiled its shorter-length GeForce GTX 1070 Mini graphics card (model: ZT-P10700G-10M). While this may not be the SFF-friendly 15 cm-ish card such as this one, it features a more compact PCB, and its overall length is 21 cm, down from the 30 cm of the dual-fan AMP! GTX 1070 card from the company. The card uses a new custom-design PCB that's about 17 cm in length, strapped onto a cooling solution longer than itself. This dual fan cooler is the same one featured on the company's GTX 1060 AMP! graphics card.
The cooling solution features a dense aluminium fin stack, to which heat drawn from the GPU is fed by a pair of 8 mm-thick copper heat pipes, which make direct contact with it; and which is ventilated by a pair of 80 mm fans. Unlike the other GTX 1070 cards from Zotac's lineup, this one draws power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector. It sticks to NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1518 MHz core, 1708 MHz GPU Boost, and 8.00 GHz (GDDR5-effective) memory. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4, and one each of HDMI 2.0b and dual-link DVI. This card is expected to be priced at $389.

But still, it's only ~210mm in length, so it'll fit most ITX cases (including mine!!!)
Seriously though, it's good to see that manufacturers are finally waking up to the fact that Pascal doesn't need stupidly huge coolers like Maxwell 2 and the Radeons. Small is beautiful.
Look at this PCB, the 8 pin was crop to 6-pin, but the card still a 8-pin card hahaha
