Looking over the newest information I could find, it seems like there are not going to be AMD refreshes this year, and the new Nvidia cards are also slated for 2019. Am I correct in this information? Barring a surprise new Nano, we have pretty much all the SFF GPU cards on the market already we are going to have until 2019?

They can't produce fast enough for the market currently.
The only surprise we may get is NVidia's next gen stuff. Or a refresh to a more refined process.
NVidia already has the next tech ready but there's lil' point to releasing it. Why release a new product if your current one is selling so well? Just save it for later. But generally, they just drop the release when they are ready so sometimes it's a big surprise.

GTC 2018 is scheduled at end of March. Many expect Nvidia will announce 'Ampere/Volta' the next generation. I suggest waiting at least until that time.
Me too. I wouldn't be surprised if we see low profile 2050/1150s with the performance of a 1060 (though probably still with 4GB of VRAM) within a year or two. Then again there were never really widespread low profile 950 cards, so who knows.
It's amazing they think people buying a watercooled card are still using DVI. A couple years ago maybe but but the AIB partners need to get with the times. They don't even need to make it single slot, I know we're a minority market so just make it dual slot with the 2nd slot just being exhaust vents that those inclined can cut off.
Eh, some 120 Hz monitors recently started using DL DVI again. And one DVI is not a problem. The problem is video cards not using this port layout, which is perfect and single slot:

if that HDMI is 2.0 then there's nothing you can't run from this, 5K monitor, 4K HDTV, gaming monitor, anything and everything. (Remember, DisplayPort is DisplayPort++ really so this port setup allows for four 1080p HDMI/DVImonitors)
There were a few cards like this, a Powercolor HD 7950, the Club3D R9 280X on the photo at least. It's not new by any stretch.
Speaking of that 7950, remember the cheat of a cooling it had? https://www.overclockers.ua/video/amd-radeon-hd7950-powercolor/all/ and that was a 200W card. Can't see why a 100W card couldn't be single slot... there are 23mm high LGA 115x coolers, 18mm thick active RAM coolers http://www.frostytech.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=2377 something surely could be done.
As for the 1060 Ti, there's a 40% gap between the 1060 and the 1070, you can squeeze a chip in there.

Guru3D is reporting rumors from 3DCenter (in German) that Nvidia Ampere cards may launch April 12th.
The timelines they are guesstimating are:
GeForce GTX 2070 & 2080 - April 2018
GeForce GTX 2060 - Late summer / fall 2018
GeForce GTX 2080 Ti - End of 2018 to spring 2019
GeForce GTX 2050 & 2050 Ti - Spring / Summer 2019
GeForce GT 2030 - Spring / Summer 2019
I wouldn't be surprised if the 2080 prices start off relatively high and get dropped again when the 2080 Ti launches later on. No mention of Titan other than the current Titan Xp has already gone into End of Life; but this is all speculation, so there may be one next summer or so.

If there is somehow retail availability of an Ampere GPU in the next 90 days a lot of people will be happy. Still I feel like one better to be ready to buy the second they hit as stock will probably vanish in minutes.
May actually look into preorders...*shudders

I'm just going to buy five cards so that I can resell four and get mine for free!!

Really curious to see what a 75W and a 35W GPU are capable of in 2019. Looking forward to those GTX 2050 and GT2030.
I think preordering will be the only hope for many, I'll bet anything near MSRP will sellout seconds after release based on what I've seen GPU shopping in the past few weeks. Will be an interesting show to be certain, grab your popcorn for the wave of whining on Reddit about miners killing pc gaming blah blah.
