ZOTAC Rolls Out a Low-profile GeForce GTX 1650 Graphics Card
ZOTAC rolled out its first low-profile GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card, close to a month after MSI released the very first card of its kind. ZOTAC's 16 cm-long card uses a 2-slot thick chunky aluminium heatsink to cool the GPU, memory, and a portion of the VRM. This heatsink is ventilated by two 40 mm fans. The card relies on the PCI-Express slot for all its power, and runs the GPU at NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1665 MHz boost, and 8 Gbps GDDR5 memory. The card uses 4 GB of memory across a 128-bit wide memory bus. Based on the 12 nm "TU117" silicon, the GTX 1650 packs 896 CUDA cores, 56 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. Display outputs include one each of HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI-D. The company didn't reveal pricing.

On another note, hope this helps bring down the price of low profile GTX 1050s. Even used ones are all over $100, which you can find used RX 480s for nowadays.
Okay.. what's next, a compact mobile phone that fits snugly in your backpack?

Low profile cards are purpose built and thus fetch a mild premium. So if you already have a decent performing system you're choices are get a new system with standard size cards, or keep your current system and spend a bit more for a GPU. There's always this;
