They aren't low profile, they're single slot.

This is low profile: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-023-HS&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=
 
GTS 250 low profile cards exist. ;) Just found a bunch now. The benefit is very mature drivers, so there is another option into the mix.

Low profile cards are cards which are half height and not very log too.

I wasn't recommending it, it was just the first card I came across that was low profile. I assume that most people have PCI-E motherboards now anyway, and I know you do based on your sig. :)

The GTS 250 would not have been much faster than an 8800GT - probably about the same speed. It will have lower clocks as you take a hit with low profile cards.

Since that has a heatsink that's too big, and the 5670 does as well by the looks of it, I think you won't get a better performing card in low profile format than the 5570 you initially mentioned.

would seem like that..... unless someone has got one those in my case ( spec )

i'm assuming the 5570 will be miles better than inbuilt 4200 onboard ?
