I wonder if any OC editions will come out I.e. ones that come on that smaller PCB and have a closer core frequency to the normal 9800GT (if that's possible)?

Personally, i'm quite interested in this card as I was a bit silly when i built my PC and used a case that was rather short, and as I don't want to pay out for another case, and also cba swapping everything over, this card represents a nice solution to upgrade to for me (currently using an old 7900GS).

I'm not interested in the power consumption too much, just the shorter card length.

I wonder how much this would cost. More or less than the current 9800GT?

I hope it's less I bet it sells a bit more at first (premium?) but might settle down after a few weeks to a nicer price point. Considering the PCB is smaller and probably cheaper to make (I would assume), then it could certainly be sold cheaper if they wanted it to.

Probably more

Looks like a good HTPC card or a possible folder using only one slot.

Really want to see how this preforms vs the 4670 range

...doesn't need additional power as the 75 Watts from the PCI-Express 2.0 x16 slot is just enough.

What if you have PCI-E 1.0 x16?

Given that is only declocked about 10% on core & shaders (and not at all on memory) it *should* perform within 10% of a stock 9800GT, in which case you need to head over to the Hexus HD4830 review which has a side by side comparison of a stock 4670 and a stock 9800GT (as well as the 4830, obviously )

What if you have PCI-E 1.0 x16?

Assuming it conforms to specification, it will also provide 75watss
