Yeah if your customers insist on a console size case, you're gonna need APU size graphics.

That said, I wouldn't go whole hog buying up Zens until you know what price the Scorpio will sell at. Just do one-offs as requested. I have a feeling Scorpio is going to have quite an impact on the small form factor market, especially since it will support KB/M. Be interesting to see what MS prices them at.

The card I mentioned looks like this, in comparison to a pack of smokes :pimp:

Too bad it is not a PCI-e x1, cause I've got a low profile bracket, and it would fit nicely into my J2900 rig ))
Betcha with a total power consumption :love:0W it could've been a perfect Dota 2 machine.

Those fins look rather tall, is it 2 slot?

Also grats on having the tinyest card. I'd have one just for the size.

Yep, it's two-slot. But I also have a box of old radiators and laptop heatsinks w/ heatpipes, so I can make it a single-slot in case of dire need.
I think I can stick a wrap-around heatsink from a dead HD6550 on it.

Palit GT730 w/ 2GB DDR3 (I think it's a 64bit version).
I have 2, but I still had no chance to test those in action.
If I'm right - it should be a 384 CUDA core version. They also have an identical GT720 w/ 192 cores.
