    It's nothing new though. Asus did it with the GTX670.

    And it can play BF4 in 1080p on very high settings. So this tucked under you TV in a little ITX box would be pretty amazing.

    It should also be cheaper than the GTX670 and GTX760 versions too I suspect.

    I can't help but think they have missed a trick and not made it with a low-profile solution like KFA2 have done with the GeForce GTX 750Ti. This card will still dump most of its warm air into the case so I hope the ITX case it goes into has some decent cooling.

    I wonder what the benchmarks are, it does look interesting. I've always steered away from making a small PC for the living room, but if better tech comes out that allows me to build something more powerful, I may just give in.
