I've seen this talked about in some of the forums, but no one has started a thread for this yet. So here it is.

Powercolor Standard 5700 XT
Stated price: $399
This is the smallest card I've seen, with a height and width of 2 PCIE brackets.

ASROCK 5700 XT Challenger
Stated Price: 409.99
The ASROCK card is slightly taller than the PCIE bracket and much longer than the previous card. Personally, I don't care for this one; the dimensions make it look awkward.

Powercolor Red Dragon 5700 XT
Stated Price: 409.99
I list this one third because the extra height may cause issues with some cases. Still, I feel this is a great looking 2 slot card.

Honorable Mention: MSI 5700 XT Mech
Stated Price: TBA
This one is not a 2 slot card, but it isn't that much wider. Some cases can get away with squeezing in this guy, but the fans might give you some extra turbulence.


The Red Dragon would be my pick if my case would support it. I went with a true ITX case with 180mm length restriction. As a result, the original 2070 is what I ordered as there are no ITX 2070 supers. I was hoping one of the AIB partners would come through on the AMD side, but no luck.

I'm still hoping for a 5700 non XT with max. 18 cm. Should be possible at 175W. I was also looking at the short 2070's.... :) but since I still don't really need it much I will keep waiting for now.

Somehow I don't feel NV has earned another buy from me. But since the GTX 460 they always had quite powerful ITX cards. Only time I remember when AMD took the ITX crown was with the R9 nano.

Can anyone calculate the length of the Standard 5700XT based on the pic? I'm kinda hoping it's the same length as the Zotac 1080/1080ti (or less)

Looks like 212mm long with dual 80mm fans. Should be S4M friendly!

When I saw PowerColor was releasing a smaller card my initial thoughts were "will it fit in the S4" so I am definitely looking forward to seeing @Kmpkt test results.

Looks to need about an extra 15mm of space to fit. If you want to put on a thick custom bezel (what I am now working on) it will indeed fit : )
