I really have to say that I am personally impressed that the engineering done that managed to get the single slot size down to 16mm. That is very impressive. On a small PC mod this would be an ideal card if you're running out of space.

    Those are sweet looking cards. And thought I sort of trying to phase out of sli. A pare of them beauties would look sweet on a micro atx mobo. And still keep other slots available. I wish Evga would consider building a single slot 1070 card. Or It be cool if Evga would design a single
    Slot cooler that would fit over a original 1070 card. I think there would be a demand for it. ICX coolers are nice and all but it seems that every vendors cards look the same nowdays.
    I wonder if the pcb is the original one on the Galax card or a custom job. Me thinks its rather in house built.
    Anyway, all in all I think its an awsome product. Great job Galax!

    I really think this card is going to have problems with the temperatur because of the small surface and the very small fan could be pretty loud.

    +1. I would not put this card into a case unless the case had superior airflow

    They shows these every so often, showed a single slot 260 and 570 now a 1070.

    Never once have I seen a unit in use by anyone.

    Considering there are full 1070 cards in laptops (e.g. EVGA SC17), I see no reason a single slot cooler couldn't keep up. It's only a 150w TDP.

    They're unicorn cards. Try finding one in the wild.

    If EVGA was looking for a way to differentiate themselves in the US market, a single-slot 1070 and 1080 would be one method.

    Wow.  These would be perfect for my current project.  It's not easy cramming four full sized GPU's into a 2U server chassis.
