Looks like October 25th is the release date for the 1050 and 1050ti. Pricing and a photo of the ASUS 1050ti mini in here.

The pricing seems very reasonable! Much lower than I've been anticipating. Now only to get a LP version for my HTPC

inno3D 1050ti isn't LP or single slot but it's still super small.
The dual slot size appears to be more geared toward cooling than anything else.
145mm x 99.8mm

The EVGA and Zotac Mini Cards are the same length (144.78mm). The upside to the Zotac is all connectors are on a single slot making it a candidate for an EKWB Thermosphere should you feel the need to water cool a single slotted 1050ti. The EVGA and SC in particular sounds like it's about the quietest fan (and hopefully will go semi fanless with a BIOS update like their 1060 SC). The thing only runs like 63 degrees balls to the walls.

With all of that information in mind, does anyone know if there is a way to hack around the 75W limit in power from the PCIe slot to allow for more aggressive overclocking (since thermals appear to be so damned good)?

No specific hacking needed, but you're at the mercy of what your motherboard will tolerate without instability (or damage).

Or get a longer card and go wild with this fullcover 1050 Ti waterblock: http://videocardz.com/63983/bykski-announces-first-water-block-for-gtx-1050tigtx-1050

This is a matter of "no such thing as too much overkill".

I bought Asus Dual GTX 1050 Ti 4GB yesterday and here's the real benchmark.

I wish all cards came in mini forms like this... Why didn't they put exhaust on it though?

 

[Kmpkt]

Exhaust? Like a blower fan or something?

You know a blower to blow all the heat out the 2nd slot on the card...
