MSI Intros Radeon RX 560 Aero ITX Series Graphics Cards
MSI today introduced the Radeon RX 560 Aero ITX series graphics cards. These factory-overclocked cards are available in two identical looking variants that differ by memory size - 2 GB and 4 GB. The cards are characterized by a short-length PCB measuring 15.5 cm, making it ideal for cubical ITX cases; mated to a 2-slot thick cooler. This cooler features a simple aluminium monoblock heatsink ventilated by a 90 mm fan. The card draws all its power from the PCI-Express bus. The MSI RX 560 Aero ITX features factory-overclocked speeds of 1196 MHz core, 1320 MHz boost, and 7.00 GHz (GDDR5-effective) memory. Display outputs include one each of DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.0, and dual-link DVI. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Also, it has to be said that the Aero ITX cooler is pretty good. MSI makes uses a slightly longer variant up to GTX1070. So the fairly frugal RX560 should be fine in temp/noise.
It's a pity we most likely won't see this kind of cards with RX580. I doubt this is even possible (RX570 is not much better...).
Also I think the cooler is a much downsized variant, but it;s now like a 560 kicks out a lot of heat anyways so that should be fine. An ITX Aero RX 580 should be doable since the 1070 uses about the same amount of power as it.
Most vendors make mini variants of NVIDIA cards up to 1070. Yet, we only got RX460 mini last time and the story repeats now. Ohh... no, it doesn't.
